Yes, I know, I was thinking they just wanted to clear their cache, but re-reading it I guess they wanted to clear the history in the drop down box, my mistake.gerben said:Evo, "Temporary Internet Files" is different from the "History", I am sure you also have an option somewhere to empty the history (in "modern" versions of IE it is where Dextercioby sais, perhaps to be complete history should be added in his list: Tools->Internet Options->General->History->Clear History).
To delete a single saved address in Internet Explorer, follow these steps:

1. Open Internet Explorer and click on the gear icon in the top right corner.
2. Select "Internet options" from the drop-down menu.
3. In the "Content" tab, click on "Settings" under "Autocomplete".

5. This will prevent Internet Explorer from saving any addresses in the future.
Unfortunately, once a saved address is deleted in Internet Explorer, it cannot be recovered. It is recommended to double-check before deleting any saved addresses to avoid losing important information. If the address was saved in a form, you may be able to retrieve it by checking your form history or by using a data recovery tool.
