I think someone searched for things they shouldn't have. . .
Check here: http://www.tech-recipes.com/apple_mac_tips1044.html Clearing Just Your Google History: 1. Goto the Safari Menu 2. Select Preferences 3. Select Autofill tab 4. Select the Edit button from the Other Forms Line 5. From the AutoFill list of sites select Google.com 6. Select Remove 7. Select Done |

You can completely reset Safari, if you're desperate.
Reset Safari: This just doesn't erase your google data, it erases your cookies, autofills, cache, history list, usernames, and passwords. 1. Goto the Safari menu 2. Click Safari 3. Select Reset Safari |

No, sorry, I don't use Safari and I'm not familiar with it at all.
Does this work? Seems straightforward enough. Safari * Click on "History" in the top menu. * Click "Erase History" at the bottom of the menu. |

Go to User> Library> Safari
Trash the History.plist file. Open up a text editor, put a word or two in the page and save as History.plist. Put it in the Safari folder, Get Info and lock it. No more history saved. It will save the history as long as you have Safari open, when you quit and reopen, there won't be any history. |

Probably in the browser? Unless those directions were for a Mac. Hmm. My advice would be to reset Safari altogether.
Cache - Safari - Windows Choose Empty Cache from the Edit menu, then click Empty. Google - Remove search subject history Go to Google Website - http://www.google.com Click inside of the Google search box Type the first letter of the search request you wish to erase A list of search requests will appear Move the mouse to highlight the search request you wish to erase, do not click the mouse button Press the "Delete" key |

You know, one day you're masturbating and the next day you're trying to get rid of your porn. We should have let you learn your lesson. Don't pollute your mind with that garbage. ;]
