If u are an expert in using IE answer this?

Question

Its a known fact that if we delete temporary internt files & clear the history using Internet Options, the history of previously visited sites will be deleted.

I use IE in XP. i used google to search for an article. after searching for that article that visited page appeared in address bar. for example it appeared as:
http://www.google.co.in/search?hl=en&q=yahoo+mail&meta=
After this i went to INternet Options dialog box & deleted all the history, cookies, temp files (even offline files). But when i typed the letter "g" in a new IE window the next day, the same http://www.google.co.in/search?hl=en&q=yahoo+mail&meta= appeared.
How is that? Even when i deleted the temporary internet files & all the cookies & histories how does it appear? I have also deleted the entries of forms & all others in the "AutoComplete" in INternet options.
if i turn off the auto complete feature the visited pages does not appear. But i want that feature & want that visited pages' history not to appear

Answer 1

this will help you in general.....


..I do the following regularly almost every hour or so of computer use and especially before I shut down my computer! It helps me control virus and spyware and speeds up my computer!

If you have Internet Explorer as your browser.
Click Tools at the top of your screen,a menu will drop down,click on Internet Options, then click on the Content tab.
Under Personal information, click on the AutoComplete box.
On the AutoComplete Settings window click the Clear Forms box to delete your current history, or you can uncheck the Forms box to permanently stop the generation of the search history.also under "general" click "delete cookies" and "delete files" them "clear history" put days at "0" then click on "settings" click "view files" click on top of page "edit" then click on "select all" then click on file click on "delete" close window makse sure you click on "apply" and "ok"

If you just want to clear the searches on Yahoo Home Page or any other Yahoo page, double click the search box,this will make a menu drop down with your searches, put your cursor on what you want to delete to highlight it, hit the delete button on your keyboard. If you want to delete everything just hold the delete button down until everything is deleted.

To clear searches on Yahoo Toolbar,click the pencil icon beside the search box,a menu will drop down,click Clear Recent Searches.If you want to stop saving recent searches,click Toolbar Options and uncheck "Enable Search History",or check "Auto-clear Search History when quitting IE" to clear history when you close your Internet connection.
To clear your history from Mozilla Firefox:

To delete the search tool in the start menu, Go to Start >> Run >> Type in REGEDIT

Navigate to the HKEY_CURRENT_USER \ Software \ Microsoft\Search Assitant\ACMru

Your actual search list is kept there. Delete the actual text used for your searches, nothing else.

Answer 2

I know and I have some easy to follow steps:
However, if you wish to delete search history saved by the browser and auto-filled when you type on the yahoo website, here is the solution:

To clear your history from Internet Explorer:
1. Go to the "Tools" menu.
2. Select "Internet Options."
3. Click the "General" tab.
4. Click the "Clear History" button. To completely disable the history function, set "Days to keep pages in history" to zero.
To turn off this feature:
> Open an Internet Explorer page
> Go to tools
> Click on Internet options
> Click the content tab
> Then click the auto complete button, make sure you uncheck every thing in there.

To clear your history from Mozilla Firefox:
1. Go to the "Tools" menu.
2. Select "Options" > "Privacy" > "History."
3. Click on "Clear." To completely disable the history function, set "Remember visited pages for the last X days" to zero ("0").
4. Click "OK" to exit.
This will resolve it all :)

***********
These steps are if you have Yahoo! Toolbar:
If you want to remove all the entries in your search history right now, but you still want Yahoo! Toolbar to remember your searches in the future, do the following:

1. Click the Pencil menu.
2. Select "Clear Recent Searches".

If you want to save your recent searches while you're searching on the Web, but automatically clear the saved searches when you close your browser window, do the following:

1. Click the Pencil menu.
2. Select "Toolbar Options".
3. Select "Auto-clear recent searches when exiting IE" so there's a checkmark in the box next to it.
4. Click "OK".
If you want to disable the feature entirely so none of your searches are saved, do the following:

1. Click the Pencil menu.
2. Select "Toolbar Options".
3. Click "Remember Recent Searches" so there's not a checkmark in the box next to it.
4. Click "OK"
:)

Answer 3

whe you are in auto complete there are check boxes that you tell the browser what things to keep and what not to keep
where it says "use auto complete for" just uncheck the things you dont want stored

Answer 4

Try using CCleaner to clean your history/temp files/etc.

Answer 5

Get away from IE if that's your issue.

Browzar doesn't save any of it.
