Drop Down List Past History

I am running Windows XP and I noticed that the drop down lists keep a past history of what I have entered. For example, when I use Google to search and enter an "A", I get a list of previous entries starting with "A" like Asus, Abit, etc. Is there any way to delete all of these previous entries? Thanks,
Brett Bias

Hi Brettski,

Turn off the Form AutoComplete setting in IE > Tools > Internet Options > Content (tab). Hope that helps.

Previous entries can be deleted also by simply clearing history folder. Tools>Internet options>general tab>History>clear History. This deletes but does not disable function.
