ie6 cached webpages won't clear

[thomas]

hi.

i empty the temp folders, clear cookies and history and
websites that i visited months ago still appear in the
address bar when i type. huh? i even did a search of
the registry and nothing comes up. i can't figure out
where these website addresses are being saved/cached.
can anyone help?


thanx!

Hi Thomas

Try the following and see if it helps.

Clearing Address Suggestions in IE - Per Jim Byrd

To delete ALL Addresses in the Drop Down list, go here and download
and install Mike Burgess' DelTypedURL.inf at
http://mvps.org/winhelp2002/delcache.htm See below for Selective Delete.

You can also get DelSearchMRU.inf at
http://mvps.org/winhelp2002/DelSearchMRU.inf

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".

Hope this helps.
