use the 'up' and 'down' keys to scroll through the ones you don't want and and hit the 'delete' button. works for me.

To delete all entries:

If you're using Internet Explorer: Click on "Tools", choose "Internet Options", click the "Content" tab, click the "AutoComplete" button and then click the "Clear Forms" button.

If you're using Firefox: Click on "Tools", choose "Options", then choose "Privacy", then click the "Clear" button next to "Saved Form Information".

To delete individual entries: Click the search box to bring up the drop down list, then mouseover the entry that you want to remove, then click Shift + Delete on your keyboard.

when you see the drop down list, use your arrows to highlight the porno ones (or what ever you want gone) and press delete. its that simple! now when you hit the first letter, that word will be gone

Some browsers don't do that, such as the one I'm on. I'm using Opera right now. I know what you mean though. I've searched for some pretty odd and sometimes dirty things and I've been afraid somebody'd see them from the pull-down menu. Internet Explorer, Mozilla, and I believe AOL, tend to do that. If you want to get rid of them, from what I know, you just can't. The history has nothing to do with it. If you want to avoid it, use a different browser like Opera.

Those things in the list go away eventually over time though. It takes a month or a week or something. I know the Googletoolbar thing holds only so many in the pull down. After so many, they start getting over-written by new search topics.

Hope that helps you!
