    I have a question... I work on a shared computer and have used the Yahoo search engine to look for things. I am noticing that when I type something in the search window, it remains in a drop-down sort of window. Is there anyway I can delete them? I don't necessarily want my boss to realize I have been playing on the net at work... I have tried to totally deleting IExplorer, but that does not work either.


    Thanks-

    Do this:

    Open the IE browser > Tools > Internet Options > Content > Auto Complete > Clear Forms > OK out of there. Close browser and reopen it. The history in Google should be history.

    Cheers. :)

    It follows that if you don't want to be bothered with having to clear that information, just uncheck those boxes in the path previously used.

    Well, there are more ways he would notice, and depending on your contract, you could find yourself out of a job real soon!

    Anyway, this stuff is "border-line" here, if you want to know more, I suggest you go ask someplace else.
