Default Computer Help!

So you know how on some websites it shows what you've looked up? Like say I did a search on deviantart for gay pride *hehe* and so now when i click on the search box gay pride keeps popping up as something I searched. How do i delete that? I tried clearing the history but that didn't help. I also tried using delete but that didn't work either.

Pressing down to highlight it, then press del if you just want to delete the one.

^ How to catch a ninja.

1. Safari > Preferences
2. click on AutoFill tab
3. remove incriminating data from "Other forms"

While you are at it, you might as well clean up incriminating cookies (under the security tab) and clear your cache (Safari > Empty Cache… ). In future try using private browsing.

Edit: Searching deviant art for pride art was a pretty smart idea. Me likes, me likes what I found.
