drop down address bar

I

ismail

Hi
I want to clean my internet explorer's history of viewed
websites. I have removed all the cookies, temporary
internet files, and cleared the search history. My
problem is that every time I type in www.e, I get a
website I visited a while ago. My question is, how do I
totally clean the drop down address bar in IE 6.0?

Hi Ismail - To delete Addresses in the Drop Down list, go here and download
and install Mike Burgess' DelTypedURL .inf:
http://www.mvps.org/winhelp2002/download.htm

You can also get DelSearchMRU.inf here also to eliminate the Search Drop
Down history.

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".
Recommended.
