How do I disable the function in the Google search bar that displays
each search that I have made? E.G if I search for Terry, then each
time I type a search beginning with "T", I see the word Terry, alonng
with any other search I have done that begins with "T". This is
irritating and I want to disable it, but cannot find any inforamtion
on how to do it.

Hi there,
   
    
1) Go to the Google ToolBar and click on the Google logo to access the
drop down menu.
    
2) Choose the Clear Search History option.   
   

To stop the toolbar remembering queries:  
  
1) Click on the Google logo to access the drop down menu.   
  
2) Select Toolbar Options (or just Options)
  
3) Untick the box next to "Keep a search history in a drop-down list
under the search box" or "drop-down search history"

This is a good answer if you are specifically talking about the Google
Toolbar. But if it is Internet Explorer that is saving your past
searches (using www.google.com),this wont work. You will need to clean
your windows cache. Write back a comment if you need help with this,
as it can be a hassle, or download a free trial of  purgeie at
www.purgeie.com.

try this if u r using IE. 
go to tools-->internet options-->content-->auto complete.
deselect the options whch u dont require. see if it wrks. worked for me.

Even better if you are using IE to get rid of past search?s just hit
the down arrow to highlight them and then hit the Del key.
