Deleting History

•Microsoft Windows users running Microsoft Internet Explorer 6.x and 7.x can delete their history files by clicking the "Tools" menu, "Internet Options", and clicking the "Delete Files" or "Delete" button. Users also have the option of automatically deleting files each time the close the browser window by clicking the "Advanced" tab and checking "Empty Temporary Internet Files folder when browser is closed" under the "Security" section.
•Microsoft Internet Explorer 4.x users on an Apple Macintosh can delete the history by clicking the "Hard Drive" icon, "System", "Preferences", "Explorer", and moving the history file into the trash.
•Microsoft Internet Explorer 3.02 and lower users can delete their history by clicking the "View" menu, "Options", open the tab "Advanced", click the "Settings" tab, and click the "Empty Folder" button.

Hi, in addition you might like to turn off "AutoComplete". Open IE go to "Tools" internet options and from the main menu select "Content" then next to AutoComplete, select "settings" uncheck what you don't want.

I'm sorry. You wouldn't believe how many times I'd read that already, in my searches. I knew Internet Explorer and Windows Explorer were linked, but it's just that in IE history they don't mention anything like folders or whatever.
Anyway yeah that was pretty basic, my bad..
