Answer 2

When you type in a URL into the address box, IE's suggestions come from several locations: your History, your Favorites, recently typed entries, or the contents of a folder if you are specifying a path on your local machine. Let's look at each of these.

History: as you surf the web, the list of places you've visited is kept as your history. You can control how much history is kept by adjusting the setting found in Tools, Internet Options, General tab, History box, Days to keep pages in history setting. By making this a smaller number, perhaps a week or even just a few days, you'll make a significant reduction in the number of URLs that IE will show for auto complete. You can also completely clear history here, if you like. Alternately, if you would rather truly edit the history, press this History toolbar button, which will open the history window, and you can right click on any entry and select delete.

Favorites: This is normally a smaller part of the autocomplete problem, but much more easily under your control. You can delete items from your favorites menu simply by dropping it down, right clicking on what you want to get rid of, and selecting delete.

Recently Typed Entries: there's not really much to be done here. Around 25 recent entries are kept in the registry, documented in a knowledgebase article I'll refer to in a minute. In reality it's small enough that there's just not much reason to try to edit or control this. It'll just fill up again with the next places you visit.

The File System: in your address bar you can start typing the location of a file, if you like. Type "C:\" and IE will present the contents of the root of your C: drive as auto-complete possibilities. The more you type, the more refined the list. If you type a directory name, as soon as you type a terminating "\", the autocomplete drop down becomes re-populated with the contents of that directory - if any. This one's just a feature, and I know of no way to "control" it.
