IE searches question

Guest

Is there any way that I can delete my old searches from IE? For instance, when I go to google and type "a" everything i've ever searched for on google comes up, despite the fact that I delete my cookies and clear my history often...can anyone help?

Hi Musesick (sorry to hear that :) ) - To delete Addresses in the Drop Down
list, go here and download and install Mike Burgess' DelTypedURL .inf:
http://www.mvps.org/winhelp2002/download.htm

You can also get DelSearchMRU.inf here also to eliminate the Search Drop
Down history.

Note: this does not remove entries entered via AutoComplete. To remove
hidden AutoComplete entries in History:
http://mvps.org/winhelp2002/delcache.htm#AutoComplete


IMPORTANT NOTE: Be sure that ALL instances of IE6 are CLOSED before you do
the install of this(these) .inf files.

A nice alternative just for selective or all Address (not Search) history
maintenance is EditURLs, here: http://www.aandrc.com/editurls/ Here also,
you must close all instances of IE6 for the deletions to "take".
Recommended.

hi .

To resolve the issue you have to clear search engine
manually.

Here the steps:

Please type an alphabet in the Search bar and when you get
the drop down of the previous searched items, please press
the down key arrow and press the Delete button from the
keyboard, this will help you delete the previous search
items manually. Perform this for each alphabet.




Please reply me as soon as ur issue is resolved.
