Help needed with Internet Explorer Address Bar

Hi, i have internet explorer 6, and usually i can press down on the address bar and show past visited websites. However when i delete history as well as cookies, there remains some website links that i haven't visited for a long time. For example when i type b, a bbc link appears from the bar. However it doesn't appear if i don't press b. What's also weird is that some times the bar shows some word files, pictures or folders that i have visited on my desktop and from other locations on the computer, as well as searches on places such as google as well as downloaded files. So i was wondering how can i delete this, so that for example when i type www. it doesn't give me the option of weather or a website called www1.bottomdollar.com. I hope that is clear, basically i would like to delete everything from the address bar. I would really appreciate it if someone can help me on this. Thanks

Hi
As Stefan has suggested in the previous posting you can delete this links in IE under:
Tools Internet options --> delete cookies, delete files, clear history.
Dont forget to mark the option delete all offline content under delete files.
Furthermore if you want to clear the AutoComplete please go to the Content tab.
There you can find the buttons in the personal information area.

  • Help needed with Internet settings

    Hi
    I recently bought an ipad 2 wifi with iOS 6.
    The problem is I can't download apps (error: app can't be downloaded at this time), maps don't load, safari doesn't open a lot of sites (error: can't connect to server) and some sites load without pictures.
    YouTube, though, works just fine.
    These are the only things I've tried out so far.
    I have a 2mbps mtnl connection. With a pc it's pretty fast. Utorrent consistently gives speeds of 200kbps and above. Why is it so slow with an ipad? Are there any router or network settings that I need to change? Where is this option in an ipad anyway?
    The ipad seems to be working fine on an Airtel connection so it's definitely a networking problem. Can anyone help? I contacted my ISP but they are clueless.
    My router is d-link 2750u. ISP is Mtnl Delhi

    I just did an internet speed test. the connection speed is 2mbps over wifi.
    To be clear, I have no problems connectin to wifi. The problem is I'm not able to access some (esp apple) services and websites with this ISP. I'm sure it's some router or network connection setting that needs to be changed. But which one?

  • Help needed with internet access

    I have just aquired a 5800 and I (think) I have turned of the 3G so it will only connect via my home WiFi unless it asks me.  However, when I do connect I get a tiny little symbol which looks like 3.5g and the book says it is something to do with "HSDPA".   It tells you that a line under it means "supported and active" and that a line through it means "a connection is on hold" but doesn't tell you what if there are no lines, just the symbol and what the flaming hell that means anyway.
    My question is - when this is showing, am I doing something that I am being charged for ?   On this phone I do not want to do anything chargeable without first being asked, so if anyone understands this minefield of information I would be eternally grateful for your assistance.
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    You can't normally switch off internet access via the network through settings, usually you get the following network options:
    GSM only (which could could connect to the internet via GPRS)
    UMTS only (this is 3G)
    Dual mode (which selects 3G if the service is available in the area, otherwise defaults to GSM)
    Your phone will always show the GSM or 3G signals if it is in range of such services, this does not mean that you are conencted to the internet by them. If you are connected via WLAN, you will not be charged for internet access over the internet.
    One thing to be careful of is that if you leave the range of your WLAN router, the phone can automatically go for the next access available point in the "Destinations" setting, which could be your network. As long as you are in range of the router and it is working fine, you should have no worries.

  • I can't see the animations on the website or access most of the options when I log in.Works perfect with Internet explorer though! Please help

    I can't see the animations on this page (looks like a very small image) and when I log in can't access/see some of the options in the website . The page however works perfect with Internet explorer though! Please help identify the kind of plugin/add-on needed to make it work.

    If you're using it in bright light, you may be getting sunlight through the back of the machine which can wash out the display.  The Apple logo on the back of the lid is actually a cut-out that uses the systems back light to make it glow.  Bright light (especially sunlight) can actually shine through the back.  As the users in the login are typically in the middle of the display, this is the area most likely to be washed out as that is where the Apple logo is.  You can try just putting your hand over the Apple logo on the back to block the sunlight when trying to log in.

    Hi efacg,
    Most printing issues are solved by resetting the Printing preferences. When you print from Firefox and you click on the down arrow, do you see Defualt and Firefox? Please make changes to the preferences here and preview the document.
    If this continues to be an issue please also see [[Fix printing problems in Firefox]]
    If there are any other questions, please do not hesitate to ask, we are here to help.

  • Adobe FlashPlayer paired with Internet Explorer 8 shows Plug-In version Not Installed?

    Active X version is 11.7.700.202 I am being told that for a new program (Remedy) we are going to be using that the Plug-In version needs installed or the web-based application will not work.  Is there any way to install the Plug-In version in addition to the Active X Version when paired with Internet Explorer?

    You can download the plugin installer from http://helpx.adobe.com/flash-player/kb/installation-problems-flash-player-windows.html#mai n-pars_header (under the heading Progress bar hangs...).

    Chrome uses a different and separate plug-in.
    There are things about IE you need to know, especially 11. Specifically:
    "User-Agent Strings"
    That doesn't mean a lot, I'm sure, but it's the root of your problems, and Flash Player has nothing to do with it.
    Microsoft "rewrote" the User-Agent Strings for the abomination they call their latest and greatest browser. User-Agent Strings are what websites use to identify the browser you're using and provide the proper content for it's browser engine, like ActiveX stuff, and Flash or HTML5 video. Thanks to the geniuses in Redmond, WA, the User-Agent Strings for IE11 (which has a Trident engine), ID it as either "Gecko" (Firefox) or "Webkit" (Chrome). Problem is: when the site the directs to the content for one of these two engines, the Trident engine in IE can't intepret it and the site then sees IE as an "unidentified" browser.
    The problem with an unidentified browser is that the plug-ins in that browser aren't recognized either, so even though you're up to date, it says you need the latest Flash Player when you use IE11. YouTube... has converted to HTML5 video so if it doesn't detect Flash Player, it can display HTML5 (MP4) video which requires no plug-in to play. Facebook can't do that, because HTML5 doesn't apply to games... only video.
    Microsoft has no plans to "fix" the mess they've created because they think it's a great idea to block you out of the websites you visit.
    They recommend using "Compatibility View" and pretending that you're using an older verison of IE... Problem with that is that it's seen limited success, and you have to enable it for EVERY page that has problems... individually.
    I'm not big on "pretending" so I recommend actually using another browser.
    Firefox (from Mozilla)
    Opera (from Opera)
    Safari (from Apple)
    Chrome (from Google)
    ANY of those will work where IE11 won't, with the Flash Player Plug-in (For all other browsers), and Chrome doesn't even need that because it has its own Flash Player plugin built in.

  • Flash player work with Safari, but not with Internet Explorer

    My flash player had a problem so I uninstalled it.  I had a problem downloading the player with Internet Explorer, so I successfully download it with Safari.  The player works fine with Safari, but I cannot get it to work with Internet Explorer 8.
    I used to have the Flash Player 10 Active X (10.1.85.3), which I had uninstalled.
    I now have the Flash Player 10 Plugin (10.1.85/3)
    The problem I had downloading the player with IE was that the "allow Active X" information bar never appeared and I was unable to see any download at all.
    How do I get flash to work with my Internet Explorer 8 (8.0.7600.16385)?

    This adobe web site worked easily for me, when I needed to install adobe flash JUST for IE8.
    http://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/otherversions/
    All you need to do is choose your OS in the top window, then in the bottom window choose "Adobe Flash Player 10.1 for Windows Internet Explorer", and voila, that is what adobe installs!! Give it a go. I had problems too, before I foud this. Diligent

  • Working with internet explorer

    I know mac no longer supports internet explorer. I need to access applications from my place of employment at home that apparently only work with internet explorer.
    I can partially access the website using firefox, safari, netscape,and the latest internet explorer for macs (5.2), but can't do anything with it. The IT guy at my place of employment tried to help me configure the internet explorer, but says it's old & he couldn't do it. Am I out of luck?

    Just a question: is your work computer a PC? If it is, I recommend biting the bullet and signing up for "Go to My PC" if you haven't already. I assume if you're a Mac user you probably have broadband internet at home and at work. If you use GTMPC you can operate your PC right from your home Mac, and process your stuff from home, save it on your work PC, and you're good to go! It's only $19.95 a month for unlimited usage; $14.95 a month if you sign up and pay for a whole year. It works great - it basically uses your browser at home to extend your home keyboard to your work PC. Your work PC does all the work, not your Mac - but you get to watch. It's as much fun as PC computing can be!

  • Communicating with internet explorer

    hi, I want my program to communicate with internet explorer, such as making it reload a page, change the address that sort of thing. I don't know how to make my program talk to internet explorer, can anyone help? or point me in the right direction? Thanks

    you can't do this directly... what you should look into is controlling IE through activeX components, and then see if you can tie those into Java

  • Unable to read web mail with talktalk but can with internet explorer

    I updated to fire fox 4 and since I am unable to read my web mail from my talk talk account. When I try to get into my inbox it tells me I have undefined new mail. I can access my email with internet explorer but not firefox.

    Hello,
    '''Try Firefox Safe Mode''' to see if the problem goes away. Safe Mode is a troubleshooting mode, which disables most add-ons.
    ''(If you're not using it, switch to the Default theme.)''
    * You can open Firefox 4.0+ in Safe Mode by holding the '''Shift''' key when you open the Firefox desktop or Start menu shortcut.
    * Or open the Help menu and click on the '''Restart with Add-ons Disabled...''' menu item while Firefox is running.
    ''Once you get the pop-up, just select "'Start in Safe Mode"''
    '''''If the issue is not present in Firefox Safe Mode''''', your problem is probably caused by an extension, and you need to figure out which one. Please follow the [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]] article for that.
    ''To exit the Firefox Safe Mode, just close Firefox and wait a few seconds before opening Firefox for normal use again.''
    ''When you figure out what's causing your issues, please let us know. It might help other users who have the same problem.''
    Thank you.

  • I want to add the Yahoo toolbar that is already on my computer with Internet Explorer. Is there a way to import it? I went to "add a toolbar" but that did nothing.

    Nothing much else to say; what I wrote is self-explanatory. I have the Yahoo toolbar on my computer and have used it for a long, long time with Internet Explorer. I have downloaded Firefox though because the upgraded Explorer is giving me fits and keeps freezing the page. So how can I put the Yahoo toolbar on the Firefox page to use? Can I import it or do I need to reinstall it?

    Firefox needs a different toolbar than IE, so you need to install the Yahoo! Toolbar for Firefox.
