Default Internet Question

Hopefully someone knows how to do this, cause I couldn't figure it out. Everytime I double click the input box in a search engine such as lycos, yahoo, etc. a list of past searches pops up in a window below the box. How do I clear that history? Cause I cleared my internet history and cookies and deleted temp internet files, but it still pops up. Thanks!

That's easy.....in Internet Explorer go to tools, Internet Options. Click on the Content tab. There you will see an Auto Complete button, the rest you will figure out. You will need to uncheck the forms box.

thanks a lot for your help... I know now in the future. And for the record, I didn't want to clear it out for any porn related subjects, it's just some personal things I searched for that I don't want everyone who uses my computer to see...

Someone doesn't want there parents seeing they searched for "Free Porn" when the parents start typing something that starts with an "F" ... haha, just kidding, I didn't know how to do that either, good stuff
