Clear Browser History

Guest

When I click on Clear History in internet options all traces of web surfing
are eliminated except for 2 URLs. The history column is empty but the auto
complete will always display the same 2 URLs when I begin to type in the
"open window" (Ctrl + O). They both begin with the same letter...."W".
I've run Spybot, Ad-Aware, & MS Anti-Spyware...system is clean.

Something is preventing the history from being 100% cleared. All suggestions
are welcome....Thanks in advance.

Right-click on your Taskbar and select:
Properties > Start Menu > Customize > Clear

Third-party solution:

System Security Suite (3S) is a program designed to remove internet tracks
and junk files from your computer. It allows you to delete Cookies,
clear Internet Explorer Cache, delete index.dat Files, clear Typed URLs,
Windows Temp Folder and much more.

Thank you Carey...2 BHOs were the culprits. 3S removed them & all is working
fine now.
I am grateful for your help.

Clearing the history will perform the results you want. Entering into the
registry isn't necessary.
