You'll have to edit your prefs file. It's not hard & once you look at it you'll see all the entries with URLs. Doing it often is a bother, though.

You can edit from within K-Meleon:
Edit > Preferences > Configs > Prefs

Or you can use a text editor to find the proper file in the K-Meleon folders & edit it that way. Just remember that you have to close & restart K-Meleon before changed to those files take effect.

...and if you don't want the URLs being saved in the first place, set this pref:

user_pref("kmeleon.MRU.maxURLs", 16);

to

user_pref("kmeleon.MRU.maxURLs", 0);

If you don't want URLs being saved what I do is Ctrl+G or select Search and type in your URL there. It will go to Google and you click the link from there. Smart eh?

Edit your prefs.js to have none, and copy ~somewhere~.

Then just overwrite each time.

Matthias, sometimes the prefs.js file won't co-operate with me either, to make sure that a setting you want is altered how you want it, make a file called user.js in the same folder as prefs.js with this line

user_pref("kmeleon.MRU.maxURLs", 0);

then save it.
