Do you have a Google Toolbar?......If so, go Options > Search > then uncheck > Drop down search History > Apply > OK....that ought to rectify your problem.

That helped somewhat. I talked to my friend and he helped me figure out the rest. Thank you.

I'm glad you got it sorted out.

Could you share with us the method your friend mentioned?

I know you can highlight the previous searches and hit 'delete' or 'backspace' and it gets deleted. I don't remember which exactly.
