How do you manually delete unwanted URL's from the drop-down? I was once
told a way but have forgot.

To delete Autocomplete entries from the Address bar list

[[The AutoComplete feature saves previous entries you've made for Web
addresses, forms, and passwords. To delete entries from the Address bar, you
must clear your History folder. You cannot clear individual entries from the
list of saved entries.

1. On the Tools menu in Internet Explorer, click Internet Options.
2. Click the General tab.
3. Under History, click Clear History.

Notes
When typing information in Web forms, and typing passwords, you can remove
an item from the list of suggestions by clicking the item and then pressing
the DELETE key. ]]

You can delete individual URLs entries for IE's address bar here in the
registry,

HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\TypedURLs

Or to clear them all use Wesley's advice.
 
Great Help!! Thanks, now all is taken care of.
