Anyone Know How To....

[SHAHZ]

How do you get rid of or reset the list of all the things that youve searched for on msn/ebay search.....ive got a list that will go on for miles dont want to have to scroll through things that i searched for a year ago :duh: :duh:

if you are talking about the history of your address bar it will be in >

Tools > Internet Options > Clear History...

if you are talking about the autocompleted list inside text boxes on the page you will find the clear button in

Tools > Internet Options > Content Tab > "Auto Complete..." button > Clear Forms button...

hope that helps?

[SHAHZ]

i'd also like to know how to do this so my details stop coming up at work!

Try this: (Should wipe everything)

1. Tools --> Internet Options

2. On the General Tab

Click "delete cookies", click "ok"

Cick "Delete Files", tick the option that says "Delete all offline content", click ok

Click "Clear History", click yes to the question asked.

3. On the Content Tab

Click "AutoComplete", "Click Clear Forms", Click "OK".

That should wipe all history. Alternatively if you have the Microsoft Antispyware patch installed it has an option to clean your browser history too.

If that doesn't do it, is it favorites you are talking about?

[Colin P]

no, it's when you go to yahoo/google (or any website with a 'form') and start typing in the box it comes up with stuff that has already been entered on that pc.

[Steve ( West Mids )]

and are you using Internet Explorer on Windows ....

[Colin P]

yes

[Steve ( West Mids )]

If so try, Tools, Internet Options, Content, Auto Complete .... and .. clear all coxes at top and then Clear Forms.

[Colin P]

ahhh that could be it. i'll try it when i'm next at work! Thanks

Hope this works for SHAHZ too!
