Is there a way to delete the record of a site you have been to: ex. if you went to Google, but then every single time you type in w w w . g it comes up with "google" right below, is there a way to stop that from happening??
You might want to try clearing the history. I believe if you click on tools on top of an open web page (where you see file and all that) then go to internet options. From there you should be able to clear the history.
Try that.
It depends on your browser. The short answer is yes, what you have to do is in preferences uncheck history of search engines. In my OPERA browser, it is this path:
Tools>>preferences>>advanced>>remember visited address, and set to zero. I have mine set to 500, I like it to remember.
I use Firefox
Under Tools --> Privacy there are all kinds of setting you can choose.

Yes, in Firefox, you can delete your browsing history by following these steps:
1. Click on the "Menu" button (represented by three horizontal lines) in the top-right corner of the browser window.
2. From the dropdown menu, select "History". This will open the History sidebar on the left side of the window.
3. In the History sidebar, click on the "Clear Recent History" option. Alternatively, you can press the keyboard shortcut "Ctrl+Shift+Delete" to directly open the Clear All History dialogue box.
4. In the Clear All History dialogue box, you can choose the time range for which you want to clear your history. You can select options like "Everything", "Last Hour", "Last 7 days", etc.
5. Next, check the box beside "Browsing & Download History" to include it in the deletion process. You can also check other options like "Form & Search History", "Cookies", "Cache", etc. if you want to clear those as well.
6. Finally, click on the "Clear Now" button to delete your selected browsing history.
By following these steps, you can effectively delete the record of the sites you have visited in Firefox and prevent them from being suggested in the address bar when you type in similar URLs.
