    Do you mean , so it does'nt show what you've been looking at?

    Say you type in "p" it will list things begining with that letter?

    If that is the case I think ; "Tools - Internet Options - Clear history" will sort it out.

    Maybe Im wrong , and im sorry if I am , I dont use internet explorer ( if thats what your using :))

    I've tried that, I have my history set at "0" anyway, I'm talking about Yahoo/MSN search engines which seem to keep a memory of everything that has been typed in!

    Ok , I had another go , I think this works ( Sorry about before ).

    I think Internet explorer saves form information through "auto complete" , to get rid of this information do this ;

    Tools - Internet Options - Content - Auto Complete - Then press clear forms.

    Tell me if this works :)

    EDIT : And for further reference , search engines do not keep a record of what is searched. Your browser does.

    Oh , and welcome to Major Geeks! *salutes

    Cheers Lapsed!!! :)

    That worked a treat. It's cleared everything. So if that does it I won't bother with the MRU-Blaster, not unless it does more stuff! What do you reckon?
