Internet History

I deleted my interent history as normal but over the last week old addresses still remain?? I have pressed clear history which would normally clear everything.Any suggestions?

Close IE
Browse to C:\Documents and Settings\yourusername\Local Settings\History
Delete contents

Stop being paranoid, or stop looking at naughty shtuff

Didnt work. Scanning my P.C for a virus -only other explanation I can think of!

ER,sorry should have specified to actually open up each day and delete the contents within there.. then go back up 1 level and delete that day.

There are tools to automate this (+..actually,NM)

You can also delete them individually by using up/down and hitting 'Del'
By right, clearing history should remove all them pesky p0rn links you've been too....

basicly prior address have remained when for instance I type in www.boards....a load of sites starting with the letter b show up.Also internet options/homepage -when I go to change it a load of addresses show up also?? By clearing my history all current data is deleted but NOT these

I believe MS AntiSpyware does a nice job clearing these and others... using the "Tracks Eraser" function.

In Internet Explorer .. Click Tools -> Internet Options -> Content and Select Autocomplete..

Uncheck use autocomplete for web addresses .. this should do the trick
