After I type a web address a drop down menu comes up after each letter I
type. How can I stop this and erase previous web sites that I have previously
typed in the past?

See:

"How to clear the History entries in Internet Explorer".

"How to Delete the Contents of the Temporary Internet Files Folder".

Try also...
CCleaner (freeware), from http://www.ccleaner.com/
About CCleaner, courtesy of Sandi Hardmeier - Microsoft MVP: "Be very very
VERY careful with CCleaner. We are seeing a lot of problems with that
software removing hotfix data making it impossible to uninstall IE7 and any
other hotfix/update."

And...
Free History Eraser (deletes also index.dat files):

The History folder can be deleted manually:

Clean Up Center:

Clic on "Clean Up Scan".

Then set your IE cache (TIF folder size) at about 50/60 mb.
