63818 2002-07-21 06:07:00 I was just going to suggest the same as Jim, so do try that before my next suggestion .

I assume you're handy with editing the registry by now, so try this:

Go to Start/run, and type Regedit

Drill down to HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\TypedURLs

Highlight 'TypedUrls' . Now remove the items you want to get rid of in the right pane .

Close Regedit .


Another way to do the same job as above is the following, if you prefer:

Copy the following bold text to Notepad, and save as Urls . reg

REGEDIT4

[-HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\TypedURLs]

Doubleclick it, and answer 'yes' to have it merged into the registry .


Fingers crossed X X X X that something here does the job . Let us know .

I switched of the autocomplete feature from IE...so it appears to be all over...

I also tr4ied your suggestion, Susan, and created a Url.reg which was successfully merged into my registry. However, when I turned on the autocomplete feature in IE (as a test) the URL came back.

Hey, but I can live with having the feature turned off...:-)

Thanks everybody for all your help! I am eternally grateful to each and everyone of you...:-)

Thanx,
Brian
