Answer 1

U can delete the history of search bar on ur homepage (whatever it is either Yahoo! or Google) by following this path. Tools> internet options> content> auto complete> clear forms. To stop the generation of history uncheck the box of forms.

To delete address bar history, follow this path. Tools> internet options> general > clear history > set the number of days to zero> ok.

It will solve ur all search related problems.

Turning off AutoComplete
As soon as you begin to type something -- a Web site in Internet Explorer, for instance, a credit card into an online form, or several other items -- Windows XP often races in to help. It sends down a little box, as seen below, listing items you've typed in previously.



Some people find it handy to tap the down arrow key and pluck an oft-typed phrase from Windows XP's "AutoComplete" list. Others prefer to keep Windows XP from looking over their shoulder and jotting down their words.


Deleting individual entries from AutoComplete
When you fill out a form, Windows XP's AutoComplete feature drops down a list with information you've previously typed into the form -- including any misspelled entries. Unless you know this trick, those misspelled entries could hang around and bother you for years.
Individual AutoComplete list entries are fairly easy to delete:

Click in the form's box, and press the down-arrow key to view the previous entries.
Keep pressing the down-arrow key until you've highlighted the bothersome entry.
Press the Del key to delete the entry.
Be sure to use your keyboard for this, as your mouse won't do the trick. Also, this doesn't work for Web addresses typed into Internet Explorer's address bar. To clear those, you need to delete Internet Explorer's History.


Turning off AutoComplete completely
If you don't like seeing your user names, passwords, and other information sitting in drop-down windows, tell Windows to stop by doing this:

Open Internet Explorer.
Choose Internet Options from the Tools menu.
Click the Content tab.
Click the AutoComplete button.
Click to remove checkmarks from these items:
Web addresses
Forms
User names and passwords on forms
Prompt me to save passwords
Click the Clear Forms button.
Click the Clear Passwords button.
Click OK.
Deleting old entries from the Search Companion
But you're not through yet. Windows XP's Search Companion also includes an AutoComplete feature, so it can remember every file and phrase you've searched for. Here's how to turn it off, as well:

Choose Search from the Start menu.
Choose Change Preferences.
Choose Turn AutoComplete off.
Although this stops the Search Companion's little doggy from saving your future search strings, it won't erase the existing entries. To do that, download and run this program from Doug Knox' Web site.
Many programs, including Media Player and your Start menu, keep lists of your Most Recently Used files in a drop down box below your File menu. These lists can be deleted also, but they require a different clean-up method.

Answer 4

In Internet Explorer,

Tools > Internet Options > Content Tab > Auto Complete Button > Clear Forms Button

You can also tell it not to save them anymore here.

(Cookies don't have anything to do with this, but it is good to clear those every now and then, too.)
