    Hello All,

    I am running XP and in IE6 when I go to fill out a field in a form I am presented with a list of all the previous entries that began with the first letter that I type. So for example when I want to upload a daily picture on my bbs I need to type in the URL, so I type h and get a pulldown list of all the other entries that began with 'h'. The problem is that after a few months the list has become enormous and scrolling through it is cumbersome. Is there anyway to limit or delete this list?

    I have found a place in the registry where I can delete typed URL's, but this only works for the address bar of IE, not for autocomplete in form-fields.

    thanks up front,

    joste
