You just need to clear the Internet Explorer's stored history Follow these steps:

Open Internet Explorer

On the top menu bar click "Tools"

A menu box opens up, click on "Internet Options" which is the bottom item.

The Internet options box opens.

There are three scetions here; "Home Page", "Temporary Internet Files", and "History" Click on "Clear History" to remove the history of the web sites you've visited You also have the option of setting the number of days you want Internet Explorer to keep visited web sites in its history If you set it to "0" the history should be cleared every time you start up Internet Explorer.
