I'm running SeaMonkey v2.33.1 on a Windows 7 machine.

I misspelled a website address and ended up on a real site that is of no

I want, this misspelled site shows up at the top of the list in the
location bar.

I have unchecked everything in Preferences->Browser->History, cleared
history, and cleared location bar.

I have unchecked Autocomplete in Preferences->Browser->Location Bar

I have cleared Private Data in Preferences->Browser->Privacy & Security

I have cleared Cache in Preferences->Browser->Advanced

Rebooted and restarted SeaMonkey.

With all of these things turned off, the misspelled site no longer shows
up, but as soon as I turn the settings back on it is there again.

I searched the Windows registry and didn't find it.

Where is this information stored? How can I get rid of it, as if I had
never visited the site?

Thanks!

I have discovered another way of nuking this information:
(in the Browser) Go -> History  and then delete any line(s) you don't
want.  You will note that the list is searchable.


I do not think that works.  I have entries in my address area (URL bar)
that are NOT in my history.  On the history window, I set [View > Group
by > None] and sorted by URI.


I just tried it on this machine.  It worked, exactly as I had hoped.
Step 1 was to search for the link using part of the url
Step 2 was to "delete it from History"
After that it was no longer offered to me in the location bar.
