There are apps you can use to delete those entries, or you can do it by editing the 
registry directly. Try CCleaner, under Tools section, you can use it to Uninstall 
a program or just delete an entry. 

It's a very useful program to have. You can clear out TIF, History, other temp files, 
etc.  
Download CCleaner.. Before running the scan, click Options and specify 
any Cookies you don't want removed. You might also want to uncheck the box that says, 
"don't remove temp files less than 48 hrs. old". 

(Do NOT scan for Issues, if you're uncomfortable using registry cleaners).
