found answer from a previous user. tools. auto history.
clear forms.
 
Turn off AutoComplete
In Internet Options go to the Content Tab, click AutoComplete, in the pop-up
box, uncheck Web Address. You will note there are other settings you can
disable also.
 
Hi gb :-)

past searches, even thought I have cleared all history.

Try the following and see if it helps.

How to clear Address Bar History

See here

See this section: Instructions for Internet Explorer users
http://www.help2go.com/article58.html

Free History Eraser from
http://smartprotector.com/eraser/free-history-eraser.htm
Deletes the History folder (and the index.dat file). When you reboot, a new
folder is created

Delete History folder manually:

In order to prevent the Autocomplete from working, close all open browser
windows or it will not take effect. Go to Tools | Internet Options | Click
the Content tab. Click the button that says Autocomplete. Uncheck Web
Addresses and all other items you don't want used with autocomplete.
CAUTION: Be careful clearing passwords, be sure you have them backedup

Hope this helps.

Jan :-)
