Hi AJ
Can you please tell me how to completely remove http:
address from appearing in my in my address bar when I
start to type in new Internet addresses. I have already
cleared my AutoComplete under "Content" in the "Internet
Options" folder, however, a few e-mail addresses appear as
soon as I type the letter "e" and I don't want these to
appear.
Can you help?
Try the following and see if it helps:
How to clear Address Bar History (Search History)
See here

See this section: Instructions for Internet Explorer users

or ............
First thing is when you "clear history", you need to close all your browser
windows that are opened. Otherwise it retains the autocomplete for web
address until you do so. Then reopen Internet Explorer and you should find
that it no longer performs the autocomplete.
To prevent it from happening, go to Tools|Internet Options and click the
Content tab. Click the button that says Autocomplete. Uncheck Web Addresses
and anything else that you don't want to use autocomplete for. You may want
to clear your "forms" and "passwords" if you feel it's necessary. Just a
word of advice, make sure you know what your passwords are before you clear
that one.
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".
