IE8: Create a Shortcut for Opening in InPrivate Mode
By adding a simple command line switch to a shortcut, you can easily open Internet Explorer in the protective InPrivate mode without having to launch it from a non-private window.
1. Right-click the desktop. When the menu appears, mouseover New and select Shortcut.
2. When the Create Shortcut window appears, insert the following into the texbox:
"C:\Program Files\Internet Explorer\iexplore.exe" -private
3. Click the Next button.
4. To add a name for your new shortcut, input the name (for example IE8 – InPrivate) into the textbox.
5. Click the Finish button.
Your newly created shortcut will appear on your desktop. Use this shortcut for all of your InPrivate browsing.
