When I use google search or anything i search for like yahoo or any site

whatever letter the word starts with a stupid pulldown comes up with all the things i searched for in tha past it never goes away i deleted computer history and everything how do i get rid of all those pulldown bars?


EXAMPLE the topic of this thread is computer question

as soon as i typed the letter C for computer a pulldown came up
cryptozoology/ color /computer desktops

all the things i searched for that started with the letter C came up its annoying!!!

Especially when i am useing a log in that has to do with emails alll the emails i ever typed keeps coming up

HOW DO I DELETE THIS??


PLEASE HELP ITS SO ANNOYING!!!


it looks like this

There's probably an easier way, but one way to remove them is to click the search box once so that a pull-down containing all past searches comes up. Move the mouse to highlight the search term at the top of the list, then hold down the delete key to delete them all.

Personally I find past search term information quite handy.

To adjust AutoComplete settings

You can configure AutoComplete to save and suggest only the information you want. You can choose whether to use AutoComplete for Web addresses, forms, and passwords, or not use it all. You can also clear the history for any of these.

In Internet Explorer, on the Tools menu, click Internet Options.

Click the Content tab.

Under Personal information, click AutoComplete.

Select the check boxes for the AutoComplete options you want to use.


Thats for IE 6 anyway...

How do you stop passwords from automatically coming up?

Killuminati brother.

Tools / Internet options / Clear History...Delete Files...Delete Cookies.

Not talking about website URL's

Thanks for your help Kaknelson

To clear yer saved Passwords in IE, go to TOOLS menu then select internet options , then click on the content tab, then click on the auto-complete button then hit the clear passwords button..

CHEERS!'

^You can do what SkepticDood said to delete the information that has been saved already, and also untick the boxes to prevent it saving that information in the future.

This is all you need.

Thanks got it

I'd rather retype my passwords whenever I go to forums or other sites
makes me feel more secure haha

Well, looks like you got your wish. You edited my post 2 LOL.

It's all good, i suppose it's time for this to be "case closed".

Again the good folks of UM have come to the rescue. I guess it is "Case Closed".
