he talking about an extension to do just that.

I was thinking that Cusser meant a variation of the Firesomething extension, which randomly changes Firefox's name in the titlebar to stuff like "Mozilla Waterbadger," "Mozilla Lightningcow," etc. So SanitizeSomething would randomly rename the Sanitize feature to stuff like "Neuter Firefox," "Nuke Firefox," "Shave Firefox," etc. :P

I wasn't really being serious. but yes, that's what I meant. We need to pick the best of the bunch from this thread and get a short-list going. Anyone willing?

The words Clear and Clean seem to appear most commonly, so I'll leave this a couple of hours for comments and file a bug putting up both as suggestions (as in "Clear Tracks" and "Clean Tracks"). I'm sure someone on the builds forum will confirm if I ask nicely.

I changed the bug summary to "Rename "Sanitize" feature to "Clear Tracks""

Thanks, I shoulda guessed there'd be a bug on file already.

Wipe slate clean
or... Clean Slate.
I do prefer 'Clean up Firefox' though, but 'Clear my tracks' is ace, but I think Opera's got that

Netscape 8 uses "Clear My Tracks," I think.

Netscape 8 uses <b>Clear All</b> for immediate action, and <b>Clear My Tracks on Exit</b> for a "set it, and forget it" option.

I think that is better idea working to get a better option than search for a name that is very superficial....
