    Everything else I found on the internet was related to google toolbar, but this took care of the case when I go to the Google page and type in my search text and it brings up the drop-down list with previously searched items. Thanks.

    while clearing the history in IE is fine and dandy but it does not clear the search history on the google bar. What does work is clicking on the little arrow ( ?¥ )just right of the word google and simply click on Clear Search History. BOOM and it is gone!

    You can also highlight the thing with the mouse and then hit the delete key.
