GTA fan Posted March 19, 2007 Author Share Posted March 19, 2007 and where do u turn off 'remember what i have searched for'? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fozzy Fozborne Posted March 19, 2007 Share Posted March 19, 2007 If you're on Firefox, click tools, options, uncheck "remember what I enter into search bars and forms". That'll keep if from remembering at all. If you just wanted to clear the menus because of something "bad" you searched for, click tools, private data, check "save forms and search history. If you're using Internet Explorer 7 (don't know about 6 or earlier, haven't used it in forever), click the tools button, then "internet options". Click "delete forms" to (obviously) delete all saved information entered in forms, then click yes. As far as I know, there is no way of permanently stopping it from saving form data and search terms. Hope that solved your problem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
matt27689 Posted March 19, 2007 Share Posted March 19, 2007 If your using IE7... to turn it off altogether. Tools > Internet Options > Contents > Click on 'settings' near autocomplete ..and uncheck them all apart from passwords. Thats how mine is anyway.

Vanillainy Posted March 19, 2007 Share Posted March 19, 2007 I have one on BT Yahoo! browser on the adressbar that wont go away. When you click the drop down menu on the adress bar, it shows the sites youve been on recently. I can get rid of them in Firefox and IE but not the BT Yahoo! browser. Just gave up and deleted it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SWEETSAPRIK Posted March 19, 2007 Share Posted March 19, 2007 *Assuming you're on Firefox 2.0.0.2. If all you want to do is clear it temporarily, or turn of the suggestions, just right click the field where you'd enter text. Search history I don't mind (though I clear it from time to time) but I find the suggestions pretty annoying, as they rarely have anything to do with what I'm looking for. PяopagaиdaIиc.

GTA fan Posted March 19, 2007 Author Share Posted March 19, 2007 thanks guys, i got it done by deleting the forms. i just wanted to clear it so it will only bring up stuff that i have searched for and not all this other random crap. thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
