Depends on which search box you're talking about.\n\nFor a search box that appears on a web page (e.g., www.yahoo.com or www.google.com), using Internet Explorer:\n\nGo to Tools > Internet Options in the top menu. This should open a configuration dialog; click on the 'Content' tab. You should see an 'AutoComplete' button towards the bottom. Click that, then click the 'Clear forms' button.\n\nFor the search box that appears on the Y! Toolbar:\n\nClick on the pencil next to the search box and select "clear recent searches".

what you need to go to is Tools - Internet Options - Content tab - Autocomplete - and choose clear forms.  If your don't want it to safe the searches, then unclick the box beside the forms choice in what to save.  Personally, I find it annoying.

If u use Internet Explorer, just double click in the search box to get the pull-down menu that contains all the previous search terms. just highlight the terms u want to delete and press the DELETE button on ur keyboard.\nIn Firefox, the same method works - but u've to hold the SHIFT key along with DELETE key.\nIn Yahoo toolbar, the option can be found in the pull-down menu adjacent to the search box.
