Question Posted Wednesday March 7 2007, 3:51 pm

Windows:

You know how there's the address bar, and when you start typing, a drop down list will appear under the address bar? Well i went onto a nasty site a while ago, and its on the drop down menu. is there any way i could get it off?

First of all, click the clock on the top of your browser button until a screen on the left opens. Open the icon for "today", find the site and delete it.
If that doesn't work, you're going to have to delete your entire history so take the following steps until it goes away:
1. Tools > Internet Options > History > Clear History
2. Tools > Internet Options > Content > Personal Information > Autocomplete... > Clear Forms and Clear Passwords
3. Tools > Internet Options > Temporary Internet Files > Delete Cookies
4. Tools > Internet Options > Temporary Internet Files > Delete Files
---
Ok, I guess your browser doesn't support that. So to reach that screen, instead of clicking the clock button go:
View > Explorer Bar > History
or do it the keyboard way:
Ctrl+H

You have to go down to that site & hover over it so it's highlighted-but don't click it. Then, press the delete key. It should be deleted.

Let me know if this works out.

go to the tools tab
