In Firefox Go to TOOLS \ Clear Private Data In Explorer, go download Firefox!

Deleting search history from the Google home page search box In Internet Explorer The search history that displays in the search box on the Google homepage is stored by your browser, not by Google. You can clear the history or disable this feature entirely by following these steps: Go to the “Tools” menu Select “Internet Options” Select the “Content” tab Within the “Personal Information” area, select “AutoComplete” To clear the current history, click on “Clear Forms” To disable this feature entirely, uncheck the “Forms” box You can also delete individual entries from your search history by using the Down arrow key to highlight a previous search and then pressing the Delete key. In Firefox As with Internet Explorer, you can also clear the search history or disable the feature in Firefox. Go to the “Tools” menu Select “Options” Select the “Privacy” tab Within the “Saved Form Information” area: To clear the current history, click on “Clear” To disable this feature entirely, uncheck the “Save information I enter in web page forms and the search bar” Another way to very quickly clear the search history is to place your cursor in the search box, right click and select “clear search history.” This is faster for on-the-fly clearing. You can also delete individual entries from your search history by using the Down arrow key to highlight a previous search and then pressing the Shift-Delete key. HOpe you Get it!
