To delete Autocomplete entries from the Address bar list

The AutoComplete feature saves previous entries you've made for Web
addresses, forms, and passwords. To delete entries from the Address bar, you
must clear your History folder. You cannot clear individual entries from the
list of saved entries.

1.. On the Tools menu in Internet Explorer, click Internet Options.
2.. Click the General tab.
3.. Under History, click Clear History.
Notes

a.. When typing information in Web forms, and typing passwords, you can
remove an item from the list of suggestions by clicking the item and then
pressing the DELETE key.
