Is it possible to delete the history in the "run" dialog box? It has
accumulated over time and I want to get rid of it.

Thanks!

Open Regedit
Find key HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrnetVersion\Explorer
\RunMRU

Delete all the entries except (Default).

quit regedit, and reboot.

Good luck.

\RunMRU

The problem is, there's still a bunch of websites--mostly mp3's and wmv's--in
the run list. What do I do about that?
