    Ever get the feeling you are wasting your time? :rolleyes:

    Absolutely sure you have turned off autocomplete? Do you have a search toolbar installed, google etc?

    the best but long winded way of doing it is in regedit.
    type in your most common url. say bbc.co.uk in mine.
    then a list comes up of all the urls you have typed. delete each one you dont want.
    but you have to renumber the/any remainder from 1 and up. if you dont all bets are off!
    simple way is to just leave say the first couple, say 1/2/3 etc... assuming these ones are not the betting or !!!!!! url names!
    Get some gorm.
