unfortunately this doesn't work with addresses entered into the Google Maps "Get Directions" text boxes. If you clear the web form and log out then your previsouly searched for addresses don't show in when you begin typing in a new address for directions.

However, if you log back into your Google account that history does show up and as soon as you start to type in a new address for directions any address you have searched for previously will show up.

just DL the Google toolbar and when you go to the scrolldown page just go all the way to the bottom and select "Clear search history".

Mac People....Go to google.com (for example) .. in the search area click on it and scroll down to highlight a previous search but dont click on it, then click shift and delete. You can delete them one by one.

People are asking about Mozilla Firefox deletion. I figured it out. Go to tools then options (at the bottem). Click on options and a thing will come up. On the side bar of the pop-up thing, click privacy. The there is a link that says saved imformation or something along those general lines. Click that and it will pop-up with a thing that has a box that says something like: "Save information from searches, etc., etc." Unmark the box and click okay at the bottem. Not clear which is next to it. This should work.

As far as I know, only if you are the owner of the website that contains the newspaper articles.

If are using Netscape 8, at the top part of the Netscape browser
window there should a Location bar (also called address field). Type
about:config into the Location bar (and press Enter). Now you should
see a text field (also called a text box) right to text "Filter:".
Type browser.formfill.enable to the text field. Now you should see
under the text field "browser.formfill.enable". Double-click it to
change it from value true to false.

In order to erase history in google tool bar (or any other search tool bar) in Safari, under Safari, go to Preferences > click on AutoFill tab > look down to see if u have the box next to Other forms checked, if so click on the edit button next to Other forms > then click Remove All....and that should do it!

I'm not sure about Yahoo. I would have expected that their search is also just an HTML form and would have been clean up by the instructions above. Are you using any kind of Yahoo add-in? Are we talking about plain old Yahoo search?

The MS Anti-Spyware program has a good cleaner for many things, I would also look at that: http://ask-leo.com/recommendation_microsoft_antispyware.html

Leo,
I tried clearing the history in Google and Yahoo using your instructions. It worked for Google although the history in Yahoo remains. Any suggestions?? Also, what reccomendations do you have for clearing temp files and plug ins.
Thank You,
J

Read the rest of the article. You also need to do the AutoComplete clear.
