IE InPrivate Filtering - Enable it by default

If you don’t know what’s InPrivate browsing, here is brief introduction (or read it here: http://windows.microsoft.com/en-gb/windows-vista/What-is-InPrivate-Browsing)

InPrivate Browsing enables you to surf the web without leaving a trail in Internet Explorer. This helps prevent anyone else who might be using your computer from seeing where you visited and what you looked at on the web. You can start InPrivate Browsing from the new tab page or the Safety button.

Now you know or already know what it is, you may want to enable it every time you open Internet Explorer. Here is how you can do it.

  1. Open Registry Editor (Regedit.exe)
  2. Navigate to HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Safety\PrivacIE
  3. Create new DWORD key named StartMode and set the value 1.
  4. Close Registry Editor
  5. That’s it.

Enjoy your InPrivate browsing.
