It's really annoying, my computer keeps my searches saved on my search bars and everytime I search for something the last searches I looked up show up and sometimes take the place of what I typed, how do I make it to where it doesnt save anymore. Im talking about the search bar and yahoo and google, where you type in what your searching for.

Internet Explorer: Tools - Internet Options - Content - Autocomplete\nMozilla Firefox: Tools - Options - Privacy - Saved Forms\n\nUncheck the ones you don't want. Sorry, I can't help you with Netscape or Opera.

This works if you have Internet Explorer as your browser.\nThe record of search history which appears in the search box on Yahoo and Google pages is actually a feature controlled by your browser.\n\nClick Tools at the top of your screen, a menu will drop down, click on Internet Options, then click on the Content tab. \nUnder Personal information, click on the AutoComplete box. \nOn the AutoComplete Settings window click the Clear Forms box to delete your current history, or you can uncheck the Forms box to permanently stop the generation of the search history. When you are finished remember to click OK.\n\nIf you just want to clear searches on Yahoo or Google Home Page or any other Yahoo or Google page, double click the search box, this will make a menu drop down with your searches, put your cursor on what you want to delete to highlight it, hit the delete button on your keyboard. If you want to delete everything just hold the delete button down until everything is deleted.\n\nTo clear searches on Yahoo Toolbar, click the pencil icon beside the search box, a menu will drop down, click Clear Recent Searches. If you want to stop saving recent searches, click Toolbar Options and uncheck "Enable Search History", or check "Auto-clear Search History when quitting IE" to clear history when you close your Internet connection. \n\nTo clear searches on Google toolbar, click "Google" on the left of the search box, a menu will drop down, click Clear Search History. To stop saving searches click options, click search tab and check or uncheck to configure your search box.

On the yahoo toolbar, click on the toolbar settings button (thats the button that looks like a pencil), then go to toolbar options. \nOnce there, un-check the box that says "Auto clear search history when quitting IE".\nLater when you want to clear it, go to the toolbar settings button again and click on "Clear Search History"

Have you visited the sites recently?  Even if you've cleared history, if you still have a set number of days to keep something in the history, it will still be there.  Set the number of days to zero.  Also, have you tried clearing your cache?  this is seperate from the history or cookies.  \n\nYou might also want to make sure you clear all forms.  if you are also getting your previous serches appearing when you attempt to use search engines, this may be your problem.\n\nAlso, what are you running?  IE, firefox, are you working from an AOL browser?  that might make a little bit of difference.

To clear your search history and prevent it from being saved in the future follow these steps:\n\nIf you use Internet Explorer, click the "Tools" link at the top of the window then select "Internet Options". Click on "Content" tab at top. Under "Personal Information" on the bottom half of the window click "Auto Complete". Uncheck "Web Addresses", "Forms" and "User Names & Passwords on Forms". That prevents the Search History from being kept. To erase what's already there then below that click the "Clear Forms" and "Clear Passwords" buttons. Then click on "OK", click "Apply" and click "OK" again to close the window and save your settings.\n\nIf you are using Firefox, click "Tools", then "Options" then "Privacy" then "Saved Forms". Click "Clear Saved Forms" to erase the saved data then uncheck the box in front of "Save information I enter....." Click "OK" to close the window and save your settings.\n\nIf you wish to delete recent searches from the Yahoo! Search box on the Yahoo! Toolbar, click the pencil icon to the left of the Search Box then click "Clear Recent Searches". More details and options regarding Search History on Toolbar are available at http://help.yahoo.com/help/us/toolbar/toolbar-10.html

they are saved for your convenience. Just click the tools tab at the top of your internet brower page. then click browser options. And you can clear the searches and url history.

What that does is save a cookie to your computer. On some PCs the internet history, cookies and downloaded internet files are wiped when you log out, meaning that the cookie is lost, so the site doesn't know you checked that box.\n\nIf you use mozilla firefox then allow yahoo to save cookies as firefox will generally clear out cookies when you end the program. If you use IE check the settings and make sure that you have set it to save cookies.\n\nHope this was helpful

If you're using Internet Explorer, click Tools, Internet Options.\n\nChoose the Content Tab.\n\nClick AutoComplete.\n\nPush the Clear Forms button, and if you don't want it to do that anymore, uncheck the Forms checkbox.\n\nClick OK until you have returned to your browser. I recommend closing Internet Explorer and then restarting it just to ensure it stops remembering what you've typed.

If you have saved a homepage and it's returning to "About:Blank" then it's likely you have spyware.\n\nIf it is spyware, here are a few items you can download to rid yourself of it, and they are all free:\n\nYahoo toolbar - toolbar.yahoo.com\nMicrosoft Windows Defender - microsoft.com, and look for it\nAd-Aware - ad-aware.com\nSpybot Search and Destroy - download.com\n\nSpyware tries to get you to search using their search engines, might change your homepage, might look for personal information about you, or at worse, will have a key logger to watch each key you hit and then send that information to someone else.

Deleting your history and/or cookies will NOT delete your search history, you need to do the following:\n\nTools, internet Options, Content, Autocomplete..\n\nThen clear forms\nand clear passwords if you want.\n\nIf you dont want it to remember the next lot you type in, then Turn It OFF as well.
