Not according to Apple's documentation:
"If you use a shared or public computer, you may want to reset Safari  
to prevent other people from seeing what you have been doing.

Resetting Safari clears the history, empties the cache, clears the  
Downloads window, and removes all cookies. It also removes any saved  
user names and passwords or other AutoFill data and clears Google  
search entries.

In addition, any open windows are closed and a new window opens. The  
new window has a new history for the Back and Forward buttons and the  
SnapBack buttons."

I reset Safari all the time and Help->Install Plug-ins still shows  
all of my plug-ins as installed.
