I have someone's old XP Pro laptop and it remembers type-ahead values in every app from IE to God knows what. So if I type "Hello" in Google I might get :
Hello dolly
Hello magazine
Hello.com
etc etc etc!

I don't want any of the previous user's historic choices and it is driving me mad!

How do I discard them please? (Deleting temp files in IE doesn't do it.)

Try clearing history.

Did that, clears visited sites nicely, but doens't affect the memory for typed-ahead things at all. Neither does "Clear Forms" in Autocomplete, though you'd think it should. Any other ideas?

The only other thing I can think of is to "disable" the autocomplete by unchecking the boxes.
