How to delete the previously visited sites on the search bar?

How do i delete sites i have visited from the Home "Yahoo!Search" bar?

  • i want to delete some sites i have visited in the past off of the bar so that when someone besides myself searches for whatever they want, i don't want them to know which sites i have visited

  • Answer:

    To clear the searches from the search box menu on Yahoo or Google pages, double click the search box, this will make a menu drop down with your searches, put your cursor on what you want to delete to highlight it, hit the delete button on your keyboard. If you want to delete everything just hold the delete button down until everything is deleted. To clear searches on Yahoo Toolbar, click the pencil icon beside the search box, click Clear Recent Searches. If you want to stop saving recent searches, click Toolbar Options and uncheck "Enable Search History", or check "Auto-clear Search History when quitting IE" to clear history when you close your Internet connection.

when you move your mouse over the certain search term, it should be highlighted. Don't Click. Next press delete. Not backspace, DELETE. Then it should be deleted. Repeat this to delete how many previously searched terms you want.

Click on Tools. Then Internet Options. From there choose Content and then Auto Complete. Then choose Clear Forms. This will delete the search history.
