If i access the net using a browser installed on an external HD, will the web history be available on the main HD of the computer?

I want to know if this keeps the browsing histoy just on the external, or on the main HD cache as well.

If you are running an operating system from your internal hard drive, and that in turn is supporting the loading and function of a browser located elsewhere, you are still using the operating system.

MS Windows has places to hide backups and temps and hidden files that would get past a strip-search at Guantanamo.

If it is essential to you to keep your browsing history separate from your ordinary computing, you might consider installing a second HD into the tower and create a dual-boot setup, doing all of your web browsing from the instance of Windows that you designate as unique for browsing.

The above is not "authoritative" and just represents "my 2 cents" when presented with this consideration.
