To Clear Google Toolbar History

Click on the Google logo to access the drop down menu. Choose the Clear
Search History option. This will clear all the previous searches out of the
drop down box.

Typed URL's: Start/Run/Regedit: Open your registry and find the key below
and delete any value you want to remove.

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\
TypedURLs

Clearing History May Not Remove Pages You Visited Today in Internet Explorer

A small utility I created that clears certain History Lists

Clear Recent File Lists - Includes Search and Run Menu (Line 41)

Removes your Internet history in Internet Explorer. Clears the address list
drop-down, cached files, history and cookies. In Windows it clears the TEMP
folder and Recycle Bin, the run history, recent documents, and find files
history. It also deletes locked files ("index.dat" and files that are in
use by applications).
