How can I disable this "memory" of locations previously visited? I'm still using IE6. I'm just too stubborn to upgrade to IE7 I guess.

...Thanks

Are the a few things in there that people need not see?

I'm not sure how to delete these. I believe there is a program to wipe them but it also takes saved password and log in names as well.

With IE6 (if I can remember) it’s the History that you need to delete, yet this also deletes a few other areas also like the “Run” area. Its under –Tools – Internet Options- somewhere listing History.

Yes, just delete the History and it will remove the "remembered" URLs.

Also, you can set how many days it keeps remembers websites you have visited. If you set it to 0, it will not store them.

No, clearing history does not remove them. If I use the small down arrow to show history of visited websites there is nothing there, after deleting history. But, that autocomplete dropdown still retains memory.

AHAA!!!

It was under internet options\content\autocomplete\autocomplete history.

...thanks for the help.
