Hi, I am unable to remove search history I did with the yahoo search engine
via IE. I downloaded SpyBot and remove ALL usage tracks. But this has no
effect on the search history at all!

How can I remove the annoying history? How to prevent it from gathering the
history of my searches.

I am using WindowXP.

I would think:

open IE---> CTRL-H---->right click on the day you want records erased, and
click "Delete"

If you mean the auto complete history try this: Open IE or Right click on
the IE icon on the desktop | Select Tools | Internet Options | Select the
Content tab | Under Personal information select the AutoComplete tab |
Select Clear Forms

This should clear out the seach history. You can also clear out passwords
here as well. Also you can tell it not to remember this data (forms) you
fill out.
