TSGL: deleting from address (?) bar

[H Davis]

Sylvia,

In Firefox click Tools, Options, Privacy, History tab, Clear Browsing 
History Now. Look at the list produced by clicking Settings first as you 
might want to adjust this list.

Note!!!  I don't personally use this feature so you're on your own.

Also, I couldn't find an easy place to edit the list to remove just a 
few entries. But the history is kept in \Documents and Settings\<your 
user name>\Application Data\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\<odd 
letters>.default\history.dat.

You can open/edit this file with notepad and possibly remove individual 
entries but there is a lot of extraneous stuff associated with each 
entry. Again, you're on your own.

Good luck.
