Autocomplete web address problem

[Guest]

I can't seem to get rid of the drop down box suggestions. I've cleared
history and still they appear. I've cleared all forms/passwords and they
still apear. I've downloaded and ran "cleaning" programs and still they
appear.

I can disable the drop down, but it reappears from time to time after an
upgrade to IE. My son went to some sites that are for adults and I would
really like to wipe them from my history.

HELP!
