DrOmango Posted June 28, 2003 Share Posted June 28, 2003 goto tools, internet options, content 'tab, and click on autocomplete' button from there u can clear forms and clear passwords etc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kagaku Posted June 28, 2003 Share Posted June 28, 2003 I take it you went to a porn site on your parents computer eh? hehe It usually clears for me whenever I clear my history. If all else fails, search for the URL you wanna delete in the registry, and delete all instances of it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wabej62927 Posted June 28, 2003 Share Posted June 28, 2003 Try using Clear Your Footprints (http://www.newpowersoft.com/clear%20your%20footprints/), you can edit and clear your IE autocomplete list. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JadeWolf324 Posted June 28, 2003 Author Share Posted June 28, 2003 it wasnt like that and i have PopUpCop so i know it wasnt something like that. it was just a stuck cookie that would erase itself, after using that one program it erased everything even cookies it said it did erase that was the problem Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

uniacidz Posted June 28, 2003 Share Posted June 28, 2003 Just a note With all the clearing you are doing, for the changes to take effect, you have to close IE and restart it. Just in case. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
