Deleting email memory
« on: October 02, 2006, 02:47:44 PM »
this is kind of a silly question but it's been taunting me for years.  I have a Dell computer, use Windows 2000 and it remembers every email ever used to log in to something.  Like say I am logging in to gmail...everytime i typed the wrong letters or something it just saves it forever to when I start typing in the email address to log in, below I get a list of 20 emails to choose from.  (yes, i am that bad of a typist).  It also remembers every subject line i've ever typed.  It's annoying!!! I delete cookies, clear history, etc but these things are never cleared.  Can you help me?

Download CrapCleaner(Click) which can do that for you (And much more).

I forgot how to do it manually because I never use Internet Explorer. You could probably delete each entry by pressing the 'delete' button as well, though.

Not right click, press the 'delete' button on your keyboard.

Did you try the software? It can clean up all your user tracks for you..

Untick the boxes in the IE autocomplete feature and delete the existing file.

One good deed is worth more than a year of good intentions.

If I is the one you is thanking then - you're welcome..  Thanks for coming back at us..

BTW the list you was getting is a list of url's not e-mails - little point but big difference.

Bonne chance
