How to delete the total history?

[innu]

Hi!

I ve the following problem. I delete all of the history, but some adresses come always again in the Adress field where I can write the Homepage adress.

I delete the history, but some adresses won't go away.

How can I delete everything?

I've tried all and I asked many of my friends.

Does anyone have an idea?

sl,

For Internet explorer, right-click on the taskbar, choose properties, click the Start Menu Programs tab and click the Clear button.

This deletes the following keys:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\TypedURLs
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\RunMRU
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\Doc Find Spec MRU

To Completely clean the index.dat file has to be deleted. Here's how:

If you're familiar with DOS, you do this:
It will totally clean everything.

Click Start, click Shut Down, click Restart In MS-DOS Mode, and then click OK.

At the command prompt, type the following commands, pressing ENTER after each command, and pressing Y if you are prompted to confirm folder deletion:

cd\windows
deltree cookies
deltree history
deltree tempor~1
exit

the neccessary files and folders will be rebuilt at startup. To make it even easier:
I keep an old program from DOS 6.0. It's called Dosshell. It is very easy to navigate, just like Explorer. You can even drag and drop files if you've set up your mouse correctly to work in DOS. You'll need to navigate to c:\windows\history
and c:\windows\tempor~1 and to all the subfolders below these.

Even though the extra directories appear in DOS, you'll never see them in Windows. There could be 6 or 8 folders under the history and Temporary Internet Files folder itself. You'd never find them in regular DOS, beacause how are you going to guess names such as the ones under Temporary Internet Files. You have to delete every file (and you'll find more than 2, I'm sure) called index.dat to totally remove these entries.
