I assume this comes up on google site search and you don't mean google toolbar. If so, then you have autocomplete turned on. Here is what you need to do: In Internet Explorer, click on the Tools menu --> then on Internet Options --> then on the Content tab --> click on the AutoComplete --> Hit the Clear Forms button. And thats it. You can also uncheck : web address, forms and user name and password, etc to completely stop autocomplete. If on the other hand you meant google toolbar, just click on google icon on the explorer and click 'clear search history'. Better yet, click option and set you preference. Hope this solves your problem. |
