Web History Problem !

[Guest]

When I clear my internet cache memory, my history deletes (like all banking
info ..etc)... however later when I open my browser and type (www) the links
of all like 15 urls still show up of different web pages...This is extremely
annoying as when I type the alpha "a" it still brings all urls begging with
"a" i visited and so on.. even though I deleted the history.. Does anybody
know how to properly get rid of this and delete it ?

thanks

Open IE, click tools, options, content, auto-complete, change or delete as
you wish.

Hi,
These URLs you're seeing are in the index.dat file in the History folder.
Free History Eraser from
http://smartprotector.com/eraser/free-history-eraser.htm will delete the
History folder (and the index.dat file) and a new one will be created when
you restart.
Or the History folder can be deleted manually:

CCleaner from http://www.ccleaner.com/ should be able to clear the History
and the index.dat file. Just check the appropriate boxes and run it.

Hope this helps,
Don
