If you delete certain web sites and pages from your browser history, do they still stay in the temporary internet files so they can be viewed by the computer's administrator? If so, is there a way they can be deleted so an administrator can't find them?
I want to view pages that I don't want the computer's administrator to see, so I was wondering if there was some way to bypass or keep them from being detected by said administrator. I have been deleting some sites from the "history" tab near the top of the page, but I don't know if it totally deletes them from the computer, or if they are still there for the administrator to see when he checks the files and sites that have been visited.

Firefox does not use temporary internet files, that is part of Internet Explorer, instead Firefox stores them in the cache. You can clear the cache if you want, for details see clearing private data and how to clear the cache.
If you visit pages that use MS plugins like Windows Media Player or Silverlight then those plugins use the IE temporary files and cookies folder to store its data and not the Firefox cache. Java and Flash may have their own cache and local storage that are not handled as well by Firefox.
