Thanks for that :) I'd already cleared the history from my ultharkitty account, but hadn't known I could get rid of it altogether, and had forgotten to do the same with my other accounts.

I deleted the whole thing, too.
And here's an instruction how you can get rid of the Youtube history, too.

And under https://www.google.com/dashboard You can see what kind of stuff is all stored under your account.
Google kinda scares me. :S

Um... it made me a Youtube account. I didn't realise I had one of those. I'm going to go crawl under the duvet and stay there a while.

*hugs* Thanks for the links :)

Hmm, on second glance, it doesn't look like it has made me a YouTube account, it just makes it look like it has. I've never had a YouTube account, and hopefully I won't have to get one.

You can look under the dashboard link if you have a youtube account. But I don't think it'll create one. :o *hugs*

(*hugs more* I hope your day wasn't too bad. ._.)

I cleared and removed it. I never even knew Google had this feature.
