IE will remember all your entries into forms if you let it. For example, IE will remember all your google search terms. This method describes clearing the form history from Microsoft's IE.

This was requested because somebody wanted to know how to delete IE's memory of google search terms. This method will erase all the autocompletion history in IE.

    1. Click on Tools in the IE menu
    2. Select Internet Options
    3. Select the Content Tab
    4. Click the AutoComplete button
    5. Click Clear Forms
    6. Click OK
    7. Click OK again

An excellent program called Anti Tracks will do this automaticaly for you. The plugins allow you to clear your windows, IE, Mozilla, Office, and google histories automatically. Download a 15 day trial here. This is one of the few software packages that I recommend.
