Just on this topic - at one time, the search box in Google always showed a list of words and phrases I had searched for, but after reinstalling XP last year, this no longer happens, the search box always seems empty when I go to do a new search. Anybody know why that search box no longer shows previous search attempts? - Andy ----- Original Message ----- From: "Kulvinder Singh Bhogal" <kbhogal1@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx> To: <access-uk@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Wednesday, January 23, 2008 8:46 PM Subject: [access-uk] Re: confused about history and google searches | Hi there Alex | | You can delete the history of visited sites in the internet options and if | that is what you are looking for then nothing else is affected.

I have just done a disc | cleanup and got rid of allot of temporary internet files, and of course, I | can always delete the history of visited sites. However, what am I looking | at in the search box on google, as I have found there is a record of | searches I have done on topics of interest going back a fair while. I seem | to recall that even if you create an account and home page on google, google | does not remember searches but these are storred on the individual computer. | If the record of previous searches I have done on google aren't in history, | where are they? If these can be made to go away, it might be good to know | how, I think it's under content in internet options, but if I do this, does | that effect anything else in internet explorer please? | | Alex | skype name: grytpype2006 | windows live messenger name: alex.thynne@xxxxxxxxxxxxx | ** To leave the list, click on the immediately-following link:- | ** [mailto:access-uk-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx?subject=unsubscribe] | ** If this link doesn't work then send a message to: | ** access-uk-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx | ** and in the Subject line type | ** unsubscribe | ** For other list commands such as vacation mode, click on the | ** immediately-following link:- | ** [mailto:access-uk-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx?subject=faq] | ** or send a message, to | ** access-uk-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx with the Subject:- faq | | | | -- | No virus found in this incoming message. | Checked by AVG Free Edition. | Version: 7.5.516 / Virus Database: 269.19.9/1237 - Release Date: 22/01/2008 | 11:04 | | | ** To leave the list, click on the immediately-following link:- | ** [mailto:access-uk-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx?subject=unsubscribe] | ** If this link doesn't work then send a message to: | ** access-uk-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx | ** and in the Subject line type | ** unsubscribe | ** For other list commands such as vacation mode, click on the | ** immediately-following link:- | ** [mailto:access-uk-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx?subject=faq] | ** or send a message, to | ** access-uk-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx with the Subject:- faq | | | -- | This email has been verified as Virus free. | Virus Protection and more available at http://www.plus.net ** To leave the list, click on the immediately-following link:- ** [mailto:access-uk-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx?subject=unsubscribe] ** If this link doesn't work then send a message to: ** access-uk-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx ** and in the Subject line type ** unsubscribe ** For other list commands such as vacation mode, click on the ** immediately-following link:- ** [mailto:access-uk-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx?subject=faq] ** or send a message, to ** access-uk-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx with the Subject:- faq
