I'm referring to how search bars on Yahoo, Google, etc, retain what is typed and then everytime someone enters a letter it comes up with all previous entries starting with that letter. For instance, if I searched for ';Carrots,'; anytime that someone entered a ';c'; into the search bar ';carrots'; would come up. I'm asking because I've been looking for a particular item as a Christmas present for my husband, and I don't want him to somehow see what I've been searching for. Any info is appreciated, thanks.Is there any way to clear the history of a search bar?
I believe you are talking about the AutoComplete feature...I believe you can turn it off by going to Tools, Internet Options, then the Advanced tab, then uncheck the ';Use inline AutoComplete'; box in the browsing category.
If you are talking about clearing the history, like when you type www.y and then www.yahoo.com will pop up, just click Tools, Internet Options, Clear HistoryIs there any way to clear the history of a search bar?

use ';delete'; to delete it. just click on it and press delete.
It depends what browser you are using. All popular browsers support clearing the history of auto-complete items. You can usually find the settings and abilties to clear this information within the preferences or options menus.
ccleaner, download and have a run...it will clean everything up...just select the particular area to clean

Yahoo tool bar click on the pencil and choose clear search history.
Google toolbar click on the Google Icon and choose history and then you have a choice of clearing the history.
Usually there will be a selection to delete your history in the toolbar search engines right in the toolbar itself.
Internet address bar go to tools, internet options and clear the history and temporary internet files.
IE History you can delete the days by right clicking and choosing delete also.
