How to Clear the PS3 Browser History

The PlayStation 3 (PS3) system offers a full-featured Internet browser that allows users to surf the Web on a television. Use the browser to check email or visit any website. Just like the Internet browser on your computer, data from the websites you visit is stored on the PlayStation 3 system. Words or phrases that you search for are also stored in the console&'s history. This data can easily be deleted to prevent other people from viewing your browsing habits.
