File names: there's nothing less interesting than a string of numbers for a filename. Labelling it PORN attracts attention.
...Hence why, when I was making my first tentative forays into the world of writing smut, I titled the document "Internet Setup" rather than, say, "Lance's Stories" or "storyratedR" (or "donotreadthis"). ((Grins))
I also made copious use of the "cover page" for pulling up when people walked by, and the cache-clearing stuff.
Favourites have to be saved, alas, because I just have so many of them... but I took an approach similar to the document titling, and they are all buried in innocuously-named folders, with any reference to slash or rating removed from the link name. (Same goes for saved fic and fan art on my hard drive-- buried about eight folders deep amidst the innocuous stuff, with totally innocent folder names at every level.)
While still at home I was also very much a fan of the password-protected screensaver set to one minute, and incidentally I can now go to the bathroom, fix a snack, answer a phone, or make tea in exactly 59 seconds. :D
Sadly, I like being paranoid, and I think I ought to be more so. (I need to come up with some infallible way from making screw-ups like using the fannish, pr0n-filled journal to comment in RL friends' journals because I forgot what I was signed in under! And things like that!) I do occasionally think I should use an anonymous-ISP thing, because while my parents are pretty technically inept, my RL friends are another matter, and of course there's employers and acqaintances and so on, and it would be deadly embarrassing, at minimum, to be "discovered"!
