Well I use a Kindle when I watch pornography and for some reason now when I open the browser a tab also pops up with my perfered type of pornography. I have done everything to get rid of that tab. (Clearing History) What do I do? I have to get it off.

I have literally the same problem with my kindle fire, so I know how you feel. I used to solve it sometimes by having a tab with a random, clean website open that I would refresh once in a while, but that only works sometimes. Also remember to put "no" when the kindle asks you to open previous tabs.

Don't know how to do that. I guess this is a sign I need to cut down my pornography viewing time. Escpecially because the Kindle isn't exactly mine.

I'm not familiar with Kindle, but I know on iOS I go into settings and change it there. If you use, say, firefox, hit the Firefox button in the upper left corner and click New Private Window. That is assuming you use the desktop version.

Kindle has its own, crappy browser.

Just remember it is not an absolute solution, there is a chance that it will still open a graphic tab.

Can you install other ones? I use Safari on my iPod but I know on the app store there is also Chrome and other ones.

Put something like Opera Mobile on it, which exists (http://amzn.com/B004UIOUHC), and delete its data when you're done, if possible. On my phone(and presumably most Android devices), you can go to settings > applications and tap the one you want, then select "clear data" or something like it.

Dont have a kindle but in browser settings try clearing history, browser cache and cookies that could help. I usually use incognito mode on my android which the kindles firmware is based on.

Download Opera Mobile, best mobile browser out there specially for this kind of thing. Just use Private Mode, or tell Opera to clear after itself every time you close something (or the browser altogether).

Maybe clearing cache if it's there. Sorry I don't have a kindle but website and programs look at the cache to see what you like. BTW cache is like everything you see, like a hidden browser history. Also you can probably just search random stuff a lot and maybe it will change the recommendations.

Update: It's been a few weeks so while I have the time I would like you guys who answered that my sis wanted her kindle back. I got into deep trouble w/ my parents. I also can never use the Kindle ever again and they confiscated my PS3 along with restricting my use of the internet so that I should only be using it for school work. Yep, you heard it here first, grounded for watching porn.

From the deepest part of my mind I am sorry, I didn't offer you an absolute solution though and I warned you about it.

Don't worry about it dude, besides, it was my decision to watch that on a device that wasn't even mine. It was my rotten luck that that happened to me.
As your King, I pardon thee.
