    I deleted my interent history as normal but over the last week old addresses still remain?? I have pressed clear history which would normally clear everything.Any suggestions?

    Close IE
    Browse to C:\Documents and Settings\yourusername\Local Settings\History
    Delete contents

    Stop being paranoid, or stop looking at naughty shtuff :p

    ER,sorry should have specified to actually open up each day and delete the contents within there.. then go back up 1 level and delete that day.

    There are tools to automate this (+..actually,NM)

    You can also delete them individually by using up/down and hitting 'Del'
    By right, clearing history should remove all them pesky p0rn links you've been too....

    I believe MS AntiSpyware does a nice job clearing these and others... using the "Tracks Eraser" function.

    In Internet Explorer .. Click Tools -> Internet Options -> Content and Select Autocomplete..

    Uncheck use autocomplete for web addresses .. this should do the trick
