    Web browser sign on messages
    When I get to my web browser sign on page, there is a list of sites that myself, my children or whomever has opened before pops up. How can I get those sites deleted out of this place. Some of them we never used but one time when searching for something and do not need them listed there any more. My machine is an E-Machine by Gateway. All the other machines I use do not do this!:confused:

    Ok it is my "windstream" home page "search" option where histories pop into to be opened up again it you want to.

    What do you mean by "sign on" page? What browser are you using?

    Assuming you are using Internet Explorer go to Tools>Internet Options. On the General tab select the Clear History button.

    The above will clear your history, but I'm still not sure what you mean by your history "popping up"

    Rick has a good point. A WEB browser does not have a "sign on page". Each site the browser views might have one, but not the browser itself.

    So I suspect your home page is one that requires you to sign on to something. That home page may have your history displayed.

    By "windstream" do you mean these guys?

    If so, then scrap their homepage and use Google or some other site as your home page. It sounds like this is a feature of the ISP, not a browser issue.
