Just type an "s", scroll down to the word you want to get rid of, hit the "Del" key.\n\nIt's gone!

There are 2 ways to do it. 1 way... click on the pencil next to the large Y, if you have a Yahoo toolbar, then click "Clear searches". You can also disable recent searches from there. 2nd way... go to "Tools" at the top, click "Internet Options," click "Content" Tab, click "Auto Complete" under personal information, click "Clear Forms" then O.K.

In Internet Explorer, you must click on the "Tools" option at the top of the browser (between "Favorites" and "Help"). A menu will appear. Click on the "Content" tab at the top of this menu. In this tab, you will see, under the Personal Information section, a button that says "AutoComplete". Click on it and uncheck the "Forms" box. If you want to get rid of AutoComplete for web addresses and user name and password forms, uncheck those too. You may also want to clear saved data. You can do that on that menu as well.\n\nFor Firefox, click the Tools option as above (except this time it is between "Bookmarks" and "Help" instead of "Favorites" and "Help"). Go to "Options". A menu will appear as above. Then click on the "privacy" button. After that, click on the "Saved Forms" tab. Uncheck the "Save information I enter in forms and the Search bar" box and clear saved forms data.

There is usually a place you can click to get rid of it.  Sometimes it is the word "Close" or "Skip" hidden in there somewhere.  Very annoying!  But take a close look and you should see a place to click to close it in most cases.

Click the pencil Icon on the Yahoo! Toolbar, then click "Clear Recent Searches." I hope this helps!

In IE explorer, click tools, internet options, click the content tab, then autocomplete.  you can clear everything there, and deselect the options where it won't save what you typed in the search area of yahoo.

yes there is a way to delete the items u've searched in the net.\nSimply go to internet options(right click the e icon on the desktop then select internet options or tools-->internet options), click on the Content tab, there would be an option 'Autocomplete'. click on it, a new window appears. de-select the 'Forms' checkbox.\nyou can deselect all other checkboxes here if u dont want internet to store any of your info.

Do you have Windows Explorer? If so, just highlight the words in the box that automatically comes up (like in a search box) and hit your delete key. I'm assuming you are talking about the list of "history" words you have typed in a box.
