computer problem help my buddy (porn related)

oh, that's autocomplete. Do this to turn it off.

Go to Internet Explorer. Then Go to The Tools Menu > Internet Options > The Content Tab > And then the AutoComplete button second from the bottom. In there he can either uncheck "Use autocomplete for web addresses" or he can clear the forms. Either one.

He doesn't know shit about computers...I did the same on my computer and even I found it ...I talked him through and he has found it to...but there were 2 items inside HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\TypedURLs ...1 he could not delete and the porn url still is in his adress bar ... the adress bar seems to be empty but when he types www.p pornauditions (the site he visited , never heard of it) pops up again

D'oh! I didn't know he was talking about his AutoComplete feature! Do what slickdadd suggests and he should be able to clear his AutoComplete forms.

The only other way to get rid of that is to download the program located here: http://www.fsm.nl/ward/ and follow the instructions on the webpage. It's pretty complicated so I don't know if your friend can use it. You have to find your index.dat file using search and delete the URLs from it. It's pretty tricky...

Good luck!

That's what he needs to do.
