I think you just click on the dropdown bar, hover over the phrase/word you want to delete, and press the 'delete' key. That's how it works on Google. Those dropdown bars seem to slow computers down...

Question: I visited a search engine and now all the search terms I type in are saved and pop up each time I go back to the page. How do I clear it?
Answer: In Microsoft Internet Explorer, 5.5 and 6.0 click the Tools menu, then Internet Options then the Content tab then the AutoComplete button. Next click the Clear Forms button. Sometimes this doesn't work. If not, you have to clear your index.dat file.
