That feature is called AutoComplete; here's what you need to do to clear its history of visited sites:

- Open Internet Explorer, click the Tools menu, and then click on Internet Options.

- In the Internet Options window, click the content tab, and then click on the Autocomplete button.

- In the resulting window, click "Clear forms" to clear all form data except for passwords and/or click "Clear Passwords" to clear the passwords.

If you don't want IE to use AutoComplete in the future, uncheck all of the boxes in the "Use Autocomplete for" section.

Oh right; I forgot to post that info:

The list of visited sites is in your C:\Documents and Settings\Your_User_Name\Local Settings\History folder, and you can clear it by doing the following:

Go to the Internet Options again and this time click on the General tab. Click on the "Clear History" button in the bottom section of the General tab to erase the stored list of visited sites.

For the WPM 10 error, try the following:

1. There is an issue with corruption of the C:\Windows\System32\wmploc.dll file, which can cause the error you're getting.
You may have a backup of the wmploc.dll file elsewhere on your computer. If so, replace the version of the file in C:\Windows\System32\ with a copy of the backup, reboot, and try the WMP 10 installation again.


2. Run the System File Checker to check for and replace missing or corrupt Windows files which may be causing error. The following article on Microsoft's KnowledgeBase has more details on the proceedure:
