There's an easier way than editing the registry. *Close* Communicator.
Do a search for prefs.js. Right click and select "Edit" if you're using
Win98 or greater. Open it in Notepad for Win95.(If you have more than
one profile set up for Netscape, make sure you choose the right one).
Highlight the line that corresponds to the one(s) you want delete and
delete it. (It will look something like this:
user_pref("browser.url_history.URL_3", "www.google.com"); ) Save
changes.
