It doesn't look like everything I do gets deleted?

I use the internet a lot and delete all my history almost daily. I go under "Tools," choose "Internet Options" then delete my cookies, temporary internet files and history. For some reason however, I'll occasionally see something I typed in a while back as a suggested answer when I start typing something. Does anyone know how to stop this?

    Hello. Maybe because you have the "auto complete" thing on that automatically suggests ideas that are commonly used. Most of the time, it will ask before it does the auto suggestion activity. This happens when you are typing in search boxes.

    Actually, that's a whole different thing. Try right clicking the URL bar on your browser, or the search bar on your search engine of choice and you should see something along the lines of clear search history. Hope that helps.
