Clearing "sticky" history on IE

  #1  
Dec 13th, 2004
Hi, thanks in advance for any advice and guide.

I visited the site http://www.weberdev.com/get_example-3880.html after a google search. Then the site weberdev.com seems to stick to my IE history, though I have cleared the history many times by going to tools->internet options->clear history. To be precise, every time I type 'w...' the Weberdev.com appear on the address bar.

Is there a way to clear this ?? I feel annoyed, really.

Thanks again.

You could go to tools in IE and internet options /content /auto complete and turn it off for web addresses

Hi, thanks a lot for you suggestion.

Actually, I'm just wondering why I can, by clearing history, remove all the other websites for autocomplete; but, I canNOT do the same for this website - WeberDev.com. Is there a way to remove it just like the other websites instead of having to turn off the autocomplete?

Thanks again and have a good day.

Not sure why it would do that because when i go to it ,it doesen't happen to me .maybe you got something from the site that my security is not letting in!Try the following .
,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,
This problem can occur because of Spyware , go on over to the Security section of this fourm and post you problem along with a hijackthis log .
Spyware & Trojans and Other Nasties
,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,
Please Don't post the hijackthis log in this section Thanks .
,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

Please do this.
Download 'Hijack This!'. HijackThis
Save it in a convenient permanent folder such as C:\HJT\, double click HijackThis.exe, and hit "Scan".

Your copy of HijackThis needs to be in a folder of it's own. When HJT fixes anything, it makes backups of the original files in the folder it is in. Since Temporary folders are emptied now and then (the files are DELETED), it would not be a good idea to have your backups there. Those backups would be VITAL to restoring your system if something went wrong in the FIX process!


1. Please go to you're 'My Documents' folder, right-click and select 'New > Folder' then name the folder 'HJT'.

2. Copy and paste HijackThis.exe to the new folder.

3. Close ALL windows except HJT

4. SCAN with HJT

5. POST the new log in this thread using 'Add Reply'

DO NOT MAKE ANY CHANGES OR CLICK "FIX CHECKED" UNTIL WE CHECK THE LOG, AS SOME OF THE FILES ARE LEGIT AND VITAL TO YOUR COMPUTER'S HEALTH
