  1. You need to clear or disable Auto Complete. This saves all previous searches in your search bar. Here's how to fix the problem:

    For Internet Explorer: 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.


  2. ask the same question on google search, you will get many sites that will tell you step by step how to do that.

  3. Delete the toolbar and load it again. To delete it go to start then go to control panel then go to Add or remove programs then click on Google Toolbar or Yahoo Toolbar. Click on the name of the toolbar and then Click on Remove. Google or Yahoo search the toolbar name. If you find the a download for the toolbar click on the toolbar and follow the directions. I hope this helps you.

  4. That is part of the autofill feature that can be turned off in options.

    In IE go to internet options/ content/ autocomplete/ settings/ forms.

    In Firefox go to options/ privacy/ history/ remember what I enter in forms and the search bar.

    You can also delete the entries by double clicking on an empty search box, dropping down to the first item, and then pressing delete for each entry.
