Clearing History

[Geme]

When I select Internet Options and Clear History, the history i s cleared

from the History Tab of the favorites section; however, it is not fully

cleared from the drop-down menu on the address toolbar. The drop-down menu

shows the History and the Favorites. Alongside the history sites I selected

the red X delete button and the site disappears; however, when I select the

drop-down menu again, the deleted site is still there. How do I get the

Histroy to delete from the drop-down menu.

Do you close then reopen the browser?

In IE8 now the drop-down menu has the red x too so you can delete the ones

you want.
