How to Clear Recent Searches on My Internet Explorer Tool Bar
Microsoft Internet Explorer automatically saves all of your Web searches and visited URLs. This can be useful when the Internet browser automatically shows your recent searches as you begin typing, in case you wish to revisit certain Web pages. This can, however, also create privacy concerns if other people use the same computer and browser. To prevent this, you can clear recent searches in your tool bars.
