easy one here :
Internet explorer v6.0 with google set as home page.
When I click into the space bar to search google, I get up a list of websites I've visited previously.
How can I get rid of the list coming up It doesnt happen on another pc I have

This is similar to the main address bar displaying web addresses. This I can get rid of by deleting temp files / cookies etc etc.

The google list wont go no matter what I do any ideas ?

IE, tools, internet options, content, autocomplete, turn off web addresses, and clear out your forms and passwords (unless you want to keep them).

and https://www.ccleaner.com

also in the ie advanced tab, tick empty temp internet files when browser is closed.

In Internet Explorer

The search history that displays in the search box on the Google homepage is stored by your browser, not by Google. You can clear the history or disable this feature entirely by following these steps:

1. Go to the “Tools” menu
2. Select “Internet Options”
3. Select the “Content” tab
4. Within the “Personal Information” area, select “AutoComplete”
* To clear the current history, click on “Clear Forms”
* To disable this feature entirely, uncheck the “Forms” box

You can also delete individual entries from your search history by using the Down arrow key to highlight a previous search and then pressing the Delete key.

In Firefox

As with Internet Explorer, you can also clear the search history or disable the feature in Firefox.

1. Go to the “Tools” menu
2. Select “Options”
3. Select the “Privacy” tab
4. Within the “Saved Form Information” area:
* To clear the current history, click on “Clear”
* To disable this feature entirely, uncheck the “Save information I enter in web page forms and the search bar”

Another way to very quickly clear the search history is to place your cursor in the search box, right click and select “clear search history.” This is faster for on-the-fly clearing.

You can also delete individual entries from your search history by using the Down arrow key to highlight a previous search and then pressing the Shift-Delete key.
