Hi Dave,

I just was wondering if you found your answer yet. I'm having the exact same problem.

You can either reply on this list or email me at james@barnettgroup.com

Thanks,

James

     I can stop this by disabling Autocomplete altogether, but
     I want to use Autocomplete & get rid of these other
     history items.
     
     After deleting everything (as detailed above) the View
     Files & View Cookies options in Internet Options show that
     everything has been deleted & there is nothing there.
     However when I look at History using the Clock icon on the
     toolbar & then Search, these dozen or so web addresses can
     be viewed. Whereas you can usually right click to delete
     items that appear here, these dozen of so items will not
     delete (right click > delete, but they still remain).
     
     How can I get rid of these annoying items that keep
     Autocompleting, (i.e. without having to disable
     Autocomplete?)
