How can I delete words from the google bar, for instance if I was looking for Sheffield forum and didn't know the full address I would put sheffield forum and it finds it, or say I put computer information etc and it finds loads of sites, I've been looking for a particular present, and now even if I just put the first letter in this box its showing everthing I've looked for I've deleted cookies and deleted browsing history, but they re all still there,hope someone knows what I mean

If you type the first letter into Google it will come up with things you have serched for in the past starting with that leller, if you highlight the one you want to delete then press delete on KEYBOARD it will delete it from list. I found this out by mistake but it works

Click on TOOLS at the top of page/ then click INTERNET OPTIONS/ Click delete in BROWSING HISTORY/then click on DELETE HISTORY/ This will get rid of the ones you have already.
To stop them appearing again do the following
Click on Tools/Internet Options/content/look for AUTOCOMPLETE and to the side of it click on SETTINGS look for FORMS and remove the tick in the little square box in front of it by right clicking on it. Hey presto no more build up of web addresses
