  1. Press:

    "Settings"

    "Browser Options"

    "Display"

    "Clear Search " or "Clear URL's to left of "Go"

    "Yes"

    "OK"

    Suggestion: Make copy of this.


  2. on the old search bar, click the pencil and then click clear search history.  on the newer toolbar, click settings, then clear search history.

  3. Click on Tools. Then Internet Options. Click on Content and then Auto Complete. Then click on Clear Forms. This will erase your search history. If you don't want things showing up again in your search history then deselect the Auto Complete options at the top. Be sure to select apply or ok at the bottom.

  4.    To clear your search history and prevent it from being saved in the future follow these steps:

       If you use Internet Explorer, click the "Tools" link at the top of the window then select "Internet Options". Click on "Content" tab at top. Under "Personal Information" on the bottom half of the window click "Auto Complete". Uncheck "Web Addresses", "Forms" and "User Names & Passwords on Forms". That prevents the Search History from being kept. To erase what's already there then below that click the "Clear Forms" and "Clear Passwords" buttons. Then click on "OK", click "Apply" and click "OK" again to close the window and save your settings.

       If you are using Firefox, click "Tools", then "Options" then "Privacy" then "Saved Forms". Click "Clear Saved Forms" to erase the saved data then uncheck the box in front of "Save information I enter....." Click "OK" to close the window and save your settings.

       If you wish to delete recent searches from the Yahoo! Search box on the Yahoo! Toolbar, click the pencil icon to the left of the Search Box then click "Clear Recent Searches". If you are using the newest version of Toolbar with Internet Explorer and see no pencil icon you need to click the Toolbar settings icon to do this. It's to the right of the green + symbol and looks like the silhouette of a person in a gray square. More details and options regarding Search History on Toolbar are available at http://help.yahoo.com/l/us/yahoo/toolbar...

  5. To clear the searches from the search bar menu on Yahoo! or Google pages, double click the search bar, this will make a menu drop down with your searches, put your cursor on what you want to delete to highlight it, hit the delete button on your keyboard. If you want to delete everything just hold the delete button down until everything is deleted.

    To clear searches on Yahoo! Toolbar, click the blue down arrow on the right side of the search bar and on the top of the drop down menu click Options and click Clear Search History.
