IE History not quite cleared...

[ComputerNut]

Ever notice that sometimes, no matter how much you clear the History in Internet Explorer, theres always a url which was supposed to be gone with the rest when typing a url in the address bar.

for example you visit a buch of sites, then you decide to clear your history. that should clear that list of previously visited urls when you begin to type a url in the address bar. But for some reason one or two stays around. whats with that?

You could try erasing all your temporary internet files. That works for me.

I think you can use TrackEraser Pro to clear your temporary internet files
