For example I have searches from like 7 months ago and I would like to delete everything.
Those that don't understand when you search anything in yahoo if you click on the white box where you are going to write, it shows all your searches.

This is a functionality of Internet Explorer called AutoComplete. You simply go in Internet Explorer's Tools menu and open 'Internet Options'.
In this new window you go on the Content tab, click the AutoComplete button and click clear forms.

Hi playboy4s,
Click Tools, then internet options then then a box comes up where you can delete off line files, files, history and cookies just click on each one this should delete everything. You can also go to Yahoo! Messengar with Voice click messengar then preferences-ignore list highlight & remove & also message archives to delete old messages. This should do the trick. Good luck & have a good day!

the best way i can think of right now for myself is by actually totally removing my user account and sacrifice losing all my settings then recreating my account and more carefully selecting what i choose to search for because it seems with yahoo it never goes away keeps popping up somewhere and it can be pretty embarrissing. also click on tools and internet options and clear history there.
