Try the following and see if it helps.

Clearing Address Suggestions in IE - Per Jim Byrd

Hi Joe - 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.

I wrote a very simple little app a while back to do this, here it is:
www.aoqk03.dsl.pipex.com/TypedURLKill.exe

- these typed URLs are stored in the Registry, my App retrieves them and
lets you select and remove them one by one
