Title: delete internet history
Post by: Pwilsonscott on October 31, 2004, 20:07

I am using AOL 9.0 Windows XP. Is there an easy way of removing internet addresses from the drop down menu marked hISTORY ? I have downloaded various free software to do with deleting history, and ran them, but the list of sites visited remains. Many thanks.

I'm not sure I understand correctly what you are asking for. But till now I understand things in this way, where the answer is very simple:

Control Panel > InterNet Options > General (tab) > Clear History

Maybe you want to "delite Files" too.

Thanku. I have tried that, but the history still lists about 100 recently visited sites.

Have you tried AOL's own solution which can be found here:
