    I had never even noticed until you posted but it has indeed gone.

    I run CCLeaner (on a PC) so that does it for me.
    Will ask OH what they do on their MAC

    They've changed the name to "Clear Recent History".
    So Tools > Clear Recent History. Click on details to select what to delete e.g. cookies.
    You can now delete within a time range.
  • Ah... brilliant...
    I didn't spot the details bit.

    Much appreciated
