When you perform a Start / Search / For Files and Folders, Windows 2000 records the search arguments at
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Explorer Bars\\{C4EE31F3-4768-11D2-BE5C-00A0C9A83DA1\}. The
value names at the FilesNamedMRU subkey contain the search arguments, and the ContainingTextMRU subkey
stores any Containing Text qualifiers that you used.
To remove this history, copy/paste the following into a search_history.reg file. You can double-click the search_history.reg file or run regedit /s <Path>\search_history.reg:
Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00 \[-HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Explorer Bars\\{C4EE31F3-4768-11D2-BE5C-00A0C9A83DA1\}\FilesNamedMRU\] \[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Explorer Bars\\{C4EE31F3-4768-11D2-BE5C-00A0C9A83DA1\}\FilesNamedMRU\] \[-HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Explorer Bars\\{C4EE31F3-4768-11D2-BE5C-00A0C9A83DA1\}\ContainingTextMRU\] \[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Explorer Bars\\{C4EE31F3-4768-11D2-BE5C-00A0C9A83DA1\}\ContainingTextMRU\]
