Saved Cache information

G

Guest

I was wondering how I could delete some cached information. Such as when a
page that has a user id. Even if I mistype one then I think that
autocomplete saves that entry so it is one of the options avaiable to pick
from. Also any search entry box still has all the things I've ever searched
for. Even if I do tha delete cookies, etc...I don't wont to delete
everything because some are still useful but would like to selectively delete
some obsolete entries.

For individual form autocompletes, you will have to highlight (select it) in
the dropdown list and then press the "Delete" button.
Or...

4. Click the appropriate AutoComplete check boxes, or click Clear Forms or
Clear Passwords to clear all saved items from the appropriate AutoComplete
