Depends on which browser you are using:
Mozilla Firefox
To delete specific url's from Firefox address bar is really easy. You just need to SHIFT-DELETE the url and it will be gone.
Internet Explorer
To do this in IE is a little bit complex because you will play with the registry. So backup your registry before you proceed.
1. Close your IE.
2. Run regedit.exe from Start > Run.
3. Go to this tree: HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\TypedURLs
4. Delete all numbered urls that you don’t wish to visiable in IE address bar. But make sure you renamed the urls in sequential order start from url1, if you delete only certain keys.
5. Close regedit.exe

Unfortunately, without clearing the entire history, you are unable to get rid of the bad ones. You might be better off using the Favorites option in your browser. It will work like the dropdown address bar, but also allows you to explicitly save and remove addresses without having to lose the rest.

its real hard to explain. But that is why they invinted favorites. Favorites, are yours, you can add, delete, move, copy, etc.
All you can really do in explorer is delete. Once you like a site, make it a favorite. If you use MSN explorer, your favorites will always be with you on the internet.
hope that helps.
