Yahoo! Toolbar will remember your recent searches so that you can easily find the things you searched for previously. However, there are several ways you can clear the search history in the toolbar.

If you want to remove all the entries in your search history right now, but you still want Yahoo! Toolbar to remember your searches in the future, do the following:

1. Click the Settings menu and select Toolbar Options.
2. Click the Clear Recent Searches button.

If you want to save your recent searches while you're searching on the Web, but automatically clear the saved searches when you close your browser window, do the following:

1. Click the Settings menu and select Toolbar Options.
2. Select Auto-clear recent searches when exiting IE so there's a checkmark in the box next to it.
3. Click OK.

If you want to disable the feature entirely so none of your searches are saved, do the following:

1. Click the Settings menu and select Toolbar Options.
2. Click Include my recent searches with suggestions so there's not a checkmark in the box next to it.
3. Click OK.

If you've disabled the search history in Yahoo! Toolbar but are still seeing items suggested when you type, your browser is saving that information. For Internet Explorer, check your options under Tools > Internet Options > AutoComplete on the Content tab.
