search history won't delete

how do u delete the search history?? Yahoo is my search engine and won't delete search history when I clear everything else. Any suggestions???

 

quit searchin for dirty pictures!

in firefox, [which you should be using], it's Tools --> Options --> Privacy --> Saved Form Information. click the clear button, or tell it not to save anything at all

 

you could also try :

C:/Documents and Settings/your system name/Application Data --> Microsoft --> Internet Explorer --> UserData

C:/Documents and Settings/your system name/Application Data --> Mozilla --> Firefox --> Profiles --> ***.default --> Cache

C:/Documents and Settings/your system name/Application Data --> MozillaControl --> ***.slt --> Cache

C:/Documents and Settings/your system name/Recent

hope it is usefull.....

 

to delete the history in Internet Explorer right click on the Internet Explorer desktop icon -->properties -->General tab -->Clear History-->OK

to clear the temporary internet files --> Delete Files,Delete Cookies(in the same section).

to clear AutoComplete:Right click on the Internet Explorer desktop icon -->click properties -->Content tab -->Personal information -->click AutoComplete -->clear forms -->OK.
You can adjust the options there if you find it necessary....

 

that would be great if I had IE; I'm using firefox and the system will not run IE at all.

 

in your navigation tool bar go to tools then privacy --> (if needed) clear all information stored while browsing: --> click clear all

 

Firefox/ yahoo is my browser, i guess.

 

did you mean: yahoo is my search engine (like google) ....

 

Yeah, Firefox has google, but i use yahoo. I can switch the search engine.

 

Trosky311 already gave the heads up on the question this is the same I would have done.

 

There's an extension for firefox simply known as X, which will automatically clear any private information that you choose, such as history, cache, or cookies with one click.

 

I have done all that w/ options. It still won't delete the search history. Thanks though.
