Under "Tools" "Internet Options" home page, how do I
delete the pull-down list of previoulsy used home pages.
I only want one showing in the box. Thanks

Delete the History and change the number of days to keep history to 0.

Hi DD - The following refers to the main Address window dropdown list.
However, this same stored list is also used for the Homepage dropdown, IIRC.
Consequently, you'll also be removing this for the main list as well. You
may rather want to use the Selective Delete, below. Note - It's VERY
important that ALL instances of IE and OE be closed for the removals to
'stick':


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".
