On the MSN Home page if you Hoover with the mouse over the upper Rt hand corner of the Weather Window, a (X) magically appears. This allows you you to clear any saved City zip codes, and close that Window. [Reply or follow-up to this message] re: How do I remove personal information from Internet Explorer?

I went to msn.com and the X showed up like you said so I clicked on it and it cleared my town information out. However when I closed all my Internet Explorer windows and deleted my cookies and came back to msn.com it was still there. Also hotmail does not have my real town information I lied about where I was from because I do not think it is their business. Also other web pages's advertisements mention my town as well so I know it is because I typed it in on a form somewhere and even though I had auto complete turned off it still saved it.

Not really sure where the info is stored though, but on My Computer I was able to Close out the information the way I posted. faq on topic http://weather.msn.com/faq.aspx [Reply or follow-up to this message] re: How do I remove personal information from Internet Explorer?

The British sometimes say, "I'll Hoover the floor" meaning "I'll vacuum the floor." But a mouse (implying its cursor) hovers over an item on the screen.
