Hi,
Which version of Windows?
Which version of Internet Explorer?

Have you installed a security/privacy program which clears Recent documents,
Run history, IE History, TypedURLs, etc?"

Are you clearing these items from right-click the Start button> Properties>
Customize> Remove records of recently accessed documents, etc?

Clearing Recent documents, Run, etc in that way will also delete TypedURLs
(the drop-down list on the right end of the Address Bar.)

Also, addresses only end up in that list if they're typed or pasted into the
Address Bar. If you click a link or Favorite or type a URL into File> Open,
it won't go into the TypedURLs list.

You are right!

(the drop-down list on the right end of the Address Bar.)

That's what must have happened.

Also, addresses only end up in that list if they're typed or pasted into

the
Address Bar. If you click a link or Favorite or type a URL into File> Open,
it won't go into the TypedURLs list.

Typing or copying an address now works (silly me), (I thought I was
restricted
to only one entry)..

Thanx heaps Don!
