If that does not get rid of it, open Windows Explorer, and look through your cookies for a cookie from the site. If you find one, delete it.

Finally, it may be stored in the system registry.

CAUTION: Improper use of regedit can prevent your system from booting up.

Open regedit, and use edit, search to look for any keys with the sites name in it.

As you probably know, Internet Explorer makes it easy to enter URLs in the Address bar by remembering the text you type in it. If you begin to type a URL in the Address bar that you've typed before, the AutoComplete feature automatically displays the nearest match in the Address bar. If the AutoComplete feature offers the URL you're looking for, simply click Go to jump directly to that location. The AutoComplete feature's collection of URLs can add up quickly, and you may find that you'd like to delete a URL that AutoComplete has saved for use in your Address bar.

Unfortunately, you can't delete an individual URL from the Address bar's AutoComplete list, but you can delete the entire AutoComplete URL list from the Address bar's collection. To do so, select Tools | Internet Options from the menu bar and then click on the General tab if it isn't already active. Next, click the Clear History in the History area and click Yes when prompted to confirm the action. Click OK when you've finished. Keep in mind that in addition to deleting the URLs saved in your Address bar, this technique also deletes all the sites that have been saved in your History list. So before using this technique to delete your Address bar URLs, be sure you won't be deleting anything important from the History list.

Howdy,

The registry key for removing one entry is:

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\TypedURLs . . .

There may be more depending on the SpyWare, follow the directions from The Chas.

Spybot is the best. Make sure you run the update button before scanning. This will get you current to fix all spyware problems including the one you are asking about.

Adaware from lavasoft will miss a bunch.
