yes click start, control panel, internet options, there click the delete files, delete cookies, delete history, than go back and click the content tab at the top, than click auto complete, click clear forms, click clear passwords, than uncheck any of those boxes you dont want.

im guessing you have been looking in places you dont want other people to see uh?! anyway go into internet connections and delete the history, this will get rid of them all. then everytime you want to visit those naughty sites you've clearly looking at just do the same again. dan

the only way i know is to go to your tool tab at the top of your screen then click on internet opitions then you will get a screen with temporary folders and stuff that you have the option to clear off

Answer by Ryan M is almost the point. A tiny ammendment though, apart from deleting cookies and clearing the histories, to clear the search engine and address list caches, you could go to Tools --> Internet Options --> Contents(tab) --> Auto Complete --> Click "Clear Forms" and "Clear Passwords". This will ensure that all personal information stored/accessed by you will be erased.

I think the others have answerd your question :) There is an alternative of clearing the History in Internet Explorer and that is by clicking on the History button and then right clicking the folder and clicking delete. For all those who did not know :)

go to the control panel and choose internet settings. then "clear history" will appear on the lower part of the window. that's it.

Go to options and then scroll down to clear search history (it should be in a white rectangular box at the top of the home page with a magnifying glass in it.)

At the top of your browser click options then internet options then delete all history and cookies :)
