Clearing Drop Down Address Bar Entries

I'm using IE6. Is there any way to clear website addresses from the drop
down history list on the Address Bar without clearing the browser history
itself?

Re: Clearing Drop Down Address Bar Entries

Hi,
These URLs are in the TypedURLs key in the registry. This article explains
the TypedURLs history:
157729 - How to Clear the History Entries in Internet Explorer:
http://support.microsoft.com/default...;en-us;Q157729
Removing some or all entries is an easy registry edit.

This free program makes it even easier to remove some or all entries:
EditURLs http://www.aandrc.com/editurls/index.htm

Tip: If you type URLs in via File> Open, instead of the address bar, they
aren't saved in the TypedURLs key and you can keep a select few URLs in the
drop-down list.

Hope this helps,
Don
