I have so many addresses in my home page and would like to know if there is a
way to delete them. I have highlighted and hit delete, that doesn't work.
Thanks in advance for any advise that would help me out with this.
 
Hi TheKingFF :-)

Here are a few things you can try and see if they help:

Clearing the TIF Cache -
Safely Delete the Temporary Internet Files

also...

Delete all Addresses in Dropdown box

Courtesy of Jim Byrd -

To delete ALL Addresses in the Drop Down list, go here and
download and install Mike Burgess' DelTypedURL.inf at
http://mvps.org/winhelp2002/delcache.htm

See below for Selective Delete

You can also get DelSearchMRU.inf at
http://mvps.org/winhelp2002/DelSearchMRU.inf

Note: this does not remove entries entered via AutoComplete. To remove
hidden AutoComplete entries in History:
http://mvps.org/winhelp2002/delcache.htm#AutoComplete

IMPORTANT NOTE: Be sure that ALL instances of IE6 are CLOSED before
you do the install of this (these) .inf files. Otherwise the "old" entries
will just be re-written back to the Registry when you close IE.

A nice alternative just for selective or all Address (not Search) history
maintenance is EditURLs, here:
http://www.aandrc.com/editurls/
Here also, you must close ALL instances of IE6 for the deletions to "take".

Hope this helps
