How clear MSN Search Engine History? Tom B. 12-13-2007

I'm trying to help my brother long distance on this problem. We've downloaded
a couple different cleaner (Clear History and CCleaner) type freewares to
clean his MSN Search search history, but nothing has worked. How on earth
does he clear that MSN Search history? He's using the MSN browser, and it's
the engine on the home page. It's getting a little maddening. I've tried
everything, including the Clear Forms in Tools/ Internet
Options/Content/Clear Forms. He says it's not working. I have IE 6.0 and I
believe he has 7.0, so the setup is a little different than mine. How can I
be sure which version of IE he is running? How does one tell?
A little help please?
Thank you.

I was doing the same things you were trying to do and it wasn't working. I
went back to msn home page and click double click on search box and the list
of searches came up and I just started deleting them one by one as they was
highlighted and it worked!! Do not try to delete them in the search box
because it's not going to delete them. Go under the box were the list comes
up and once highlighted start deleting them. I hope this helps
