Mizzlie, I think what you’re looking at (I’m assuming you’re using Firefox) are the sites that you have bookmarked. Those are marked by a yellow star to the right of the URL in the dropdown menu. You won’t be able to delete those from your dropdown unless you remove them from your bookmark list.

I have some URLs in the dropdown menu that have a star beside them (on the right side of the column), and they cannot be deleted. Guess the website owners found a way to make them unable to be easily deleted. How can I get rid of those?

Brilliant and so simple. Thanks very much – agree with the above poster, a great site for those of us who aren’t as computer literate as we would like to be!

This is one of the best sites out there for computer users like me. I have looked for something to get rid of miss typed addresses for ever. The unused drop down addresses were so irritating. Was surprising how easy they were to remove.

Thanks !!!!!!!!!!
