    Hey all ! I have a question regarding IE. I have windows XP and when i clear the history and also the address bar, everything is cleared but there are 2 sites for which when it auto-completes the address in the address bar when i begin typing it. I don't know how this happened. It only happened on my machine, so its not done by the site. How do i get rid of this and does anyone know how i might've gotten this problem. Thanks everyone!

        Make sure you go to Tools->Internet Options->Content->Auto Complete and hit the clear buttons.

          IE gets auto-complete entries from your favorites, your documents and your desktop too. I see dumb people

            IE also stores/hides these info in the index.dat files, and in the registry under the key HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\TypedURLs
