Hi!

is there any possibility to get everything deleted in home folder if i
restart the VM (in that case untrusted)?

this would be more secure, so there will be no need to take care of
surfing and such things.

That's a disposable VM:
www.qubes-os.org/doc/dispvm

There are instructions linked from that page about customising the DVMTemplate

DisposableVMs are meant for that.

My XFCE menu came with a Firefox in DispVM option out of the box.

I'm not sure if you can "mark" an arbitrary VM as disposable, but you
can clone an existing VM and delete it when you're done. It's a pretty
quick process.
