Answer 1

go to: tools

:internet options

:delete the auto complete function

this will take care of the whole list.

:and hit delete on the desired words

Answer 2

**Removal of items on your search bar**

On the right side of the bar before you get to the web search button click on the bar (you may have to click it a few times) will open a drop down box that will bring you at the front of items you searched for.

Place your mouse pointer over the first item and you will see it highlight. Do not click the item just leave your mouse where it is and hit the delete button on your keyboard. The item will vanish and the next will take its place and become highlighted. Just keep hitting the delete button and watch them go away.

This will work for any browser.

Answer 3

Start with a blank search bar and hit the down arrows while the cursor is in the box, you will have to hit delte and then press the down arrow again for each entrry you want to delete.  It should work, i do it all the time!
