Guest Tonder Posted September 16, 2007 Posted September 16, 2007 right, we can clear the history in Internet Options, but on the address bar the url continues to display in the pull down. I try to hit the delete key but that does not clear them like it does in the pull down for the search. Ok techies, bring me up to speed please. BTW still lingering is why everytime my IE7 opens it asks for a skin type.... All the best. Tønder
Guest JS Posted September 16, 2007 Posted September 16, 2007 Re: Address bar clear history Take a look at CCleaner as a tool to remove Internet history info, cookies, temp files, auto complete and other junk. In the 'Windows' tab listing check the item types you want deleted. Also available is customization, see Options/Custom to add any other/additional folders you want files deleted from. http://www.ccleaner.com/ JS "Tonder" <Tonder@discussions.microsoft.com> wrote in message news:DE34166A-2CA4-4EC2-8C9F-BC26548C9B32@microsoft.com... > right, we can clear the history in Internet Options, but on the address > bar > the url continues to display in the pull down.

In Firefox this is not an issue. Hmmm....
Guest JS Posted September 17, 2007 Posted September 17, 2007 Re: Address bar clear history You could use regedit search for and delete the Address Bar entries in the registry. I use IE6 and these entries are found in the following location: HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\TypedURLs\url1 thru url25 You can delete the entry and leave it blank or replace it with another url entry.
