Click on the Opera panel of the Privacy Items Browsers tab to show the options for your Opera items (as per screenshot at right) and then choose the items you'd like to clean and wash by checking the relevant checkboxes.

Select Opera Items

• Cache: The cache is a copy (on your local hard drive) of web images, documents and sounds from the web sites that you have visited. It can be useful to speed loading of large, content rich web pages, especially when your internet bandwidth connection is slow. However, this history can be uncovered and space is used (often unnecessarily) on your hard drive.
• Address Bar History: This is a listing of all the web sites you have visited (including the addresses that you have manually typed into the Opera Address Bar) since this file was created. This permits others with access to your PC to see the sites and pages that you have previously visited.

Check this item to clear this history from Opera's Address Bar.

• Cookies: Cookies are small files that contain data about your interaction with the web sites that you have visited. Check this item to delete all cookies.
• Visited Links: Select this item to delete the stored record of web sites that you have visited.

Tip: Move (or hover) the mouse cursor over any privacy washing item on the screen to get further information and a brief description of that item.
