There is not an option within MSN Explorer to do this, however, it is an
interesting suggestion, especially as folks do their holiday shopping. Thank
you for bringing it to our attention.
Now, for the slightly more useful part of my post:
1) The search history is specific to the MSN account, so anyone who signs
into MSN Explorer with a different account will not see your history.
2) The search history is limited to the last 5 searches, so if you need to
"clear" a search term you can just search for 5 random words and the list
will be fully refreshed.
We may be able to provide a script to clear these values. If you feel this
would be a useful tool, then please respond back.
Take care,

Thanks for the information (and confirmation that I was not missing
something obvious :) ).
I did try the "delete" key as suggested, as this works on the webpage search
engines.
For the most part, I am the only user of this computer. However,
occasionally I will let one of my children use it for Skype or similar
(supervised). I had some medical care searches, and don't necessarily want
them to stumble across those entries.
I would think that a way to clear this register would be useful.
Cheers
We have a beta version of this tool available. If you would like to email
me at my microsoft.com address (beritb), I would be glad to have you try it
out and give us your feedback.
Thank you,
Berit
I HAVE FOUND THE WAY TO CLEAR HISTORY FROM BING BOX ON MSN EXPLORER. ALL YOU
DO IS CLICK INSIDE THE BOX, THAN WHEN YOU SEE THE SITES VISITED POINT UR
MOUSE ARROW ON ONE OF THEM-ONCE HIGHLIGHTED PROCEED AND HOLD DOWN CTRL KEY-DO
NOT RELEASE IT-THAN START HITTING THE DELETE BUTTON ON YOUR KEYBOARD-YOU WILL
SEE ALL THE PREVIOUS LINKS DISSAPEAR, KEEP ON DOING THE SAME PROCEDURE TILL
THEY ARE ALL GONE, PLEASE LRT ME KNOW IF THIS WORKS! THANK YOU, JOHN
