As long as you aren't trying to be 100% secure, there are lots of programs to wipe traces. I like Window Washer. Easy to set up and you can run it at shutdown or after browsing, automatically. You can also make it mostly invisible and password protected.

For freeware, do a Google search for 'cleaning browser tracks freeware' and you should get some more programs.

No program can remove all traces, but if you are just trying to hide stuff from the wife and kids, many of the above will work.

I know what it's like when the ol' lady finds out about your passion for polka videos. They just don't understand.

Don't forget to check for keyloggers, both hardware and software, that your wife may already have installed to keep tabs on you.
