I want to take out or clear out some of the websites I've been to from the index. How do I do that?:confused:

I'm not sure if you mean browsing history or bookmarks/favorites. For current version of Internet Explorer, favorites are managed via Favorites Menu > Organize Favorites, for Firefox, via Bookmarks Menu > Organize Bookmarks. Consult help if using another browser.

Browsing history and other recorded data can be deleted in IE via Tools > Internet Options > General Tab > Browsing History Delete Button. Firefox, via Tools > Clear Private Data...
