Running XP. When typing aa address into the explorer address bar, there are a lot of unwanted addresses that do not delete when the history is cleared.
How does one get rid of them???

Not to worry, finally found the right place to do it.....

Open MS Internet Explorer (if you use Opera - mail me and I will explain).

Go to TOOLS > INTERNET OPTIONS >click on the GENERAL tab

Go to CLEAR HISTORY

Unfortunately it will clear your real history as well.

But if you where nawty and visited hotmale.com or sex.com ... this is the way out Wink

PS: Yes you can but me a beer at Cambridge :haha:

Hang on, you're not in the clear yet... you still have to delete the temporary internet files and cookies.

(in the same box you used to clear cookies, click on "settings" under "temporary internet files" click on "view files" and delete those)

Now there is no evidence. However, the evidence is not gone for good, as it is still kept in the index, so if you have been looking at secret government files :haha: they can still track you down...


Can I have a beer too please? :haha:


(PS: I only know this... er... because... er... a friend in IT told me.... )
lol glad to see you got it sorted...

This thread only proves that messing about actually does teach us something... :comp:
