In the Internet Properties box ... how do I clear the history of the Home Pages on the drop down menu, that have been set on Windows XP Home? (Various websites have autoset as my homepage and I would like to clear this history).

Also, how do I clear the Run Menu history on XP Home?

Thanks so much for any help and have a great weekend!

Hi Jenni,

Clear Run History: Start/Run/Regedit
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\
Explorer\RunMRU

Or you use this small utility I wrote that would automate the process:

Clear Recent File Lists (Line 41)

Open IE > Tools > Options > Clear History.
Log off and login back

This should also clear the RunMRU.
