How to Delete Saved Passwords in Your Browser

Last Updated: 13 July 2014 By Mike Haydon

If you’re a victim of the latest Twitter malware virus, you may need to clear your cache and delete saved passwords.

If you’re using Mozilla Firefox 3.5+ (the latest version on 16 Nov 2009):

Clear your cache:

Go to Tools –> Options. Open the Advanced tab, then the Network tab under that. Hit the “Clear Now” button:

firefox clear cache

And you’re done.

Delete saved passwords:

Go to Tools –> Options. Open the Security tab. Hit the “Saved Passwords” button:

firefox clear password

Either click the “Remove All” button, or go through the list, delete your twitter password and any other sites you don’t recognize. Then you’re done.

If you’re using Internet Explorer 7:

with the browser open, press CTRL + SHIFT + DELETE. This brings up a window that looks like:

IE Clear Password

Check the boxes as I’ve done in the picture above and click the “Delete” button on that window. That’s it.

If you’re using Safari:

Go to Edit –> Reset Safari

This will bring up a window that looks somewhat like this (I took the screenshot on a PC, but the menu text is the same on a Mac):

Safari Clear Password

Check the boxes as I’ve done in the picture above and click “Reset”. That’s all.

If you’re using Google Chrome:

Click the icon on the right that looks like a spanner:

Select “Options”, then the tab “Personal Stuff”:

Click “Show Saved Passwords” and click “Remove All”. That’s it.

Any problems with that, just let me know in the comments section below.

      Good point. I’ve amended the article to include IE 7 and Safari.
