In the my address bar dropdown box, no recently-visited sites appear, except for the last site visited. If I begin typing the address for a recently-visited site in the address bar, the dropdown shows the full address, and I can select it.
How can I get the dropdown box to show all recently visited sites?
Thanks,
Jeff

There are two things at play with the address bar:
1. Auto-Complete
It provides auto completing URLs that you are typing by matching them to those listed in the Auto-Complete History.
2. Typed URLs
Those are the ones that are displayed using the drop down menu. They are only those that you have completey typed into the address bar.
There is not a third option to add History items to the Typed URLs unless you actually type them in.
I do not utilize the Auto-Complete features but I do like to manage my Typed URLs using <a target="_blank" href=http://www.geocities.com/johnno_ann/>Johnno's Freeware URLs Boss</a> (Previously known as "DeleteURLs" (which is what I use)).
The Auto-Complete entries along with the Typed URLs can be cleared by hitting the Clear History button on the General tab of Internet Options.
HTH to understand,
Bryan
