Hi there,
I looked everywhere but couldn't find the answer to my problem. The only solutions that I found was either 'disable autocomplete' or 'delete history all together'. But, nope, I want to delete specific url from showing up as auto-complete.

For example, I want to delete http://twitter.com from showing up as auto-complete whenever I start typing 't' in the address bar.
On the Chrome, I just put my mouse over the address and press Shift+DEL, but it doesn't work on Opera. Any help?

Have you tried removing it from history?

How do you select a specific URL from the history? In previous versions of Opera there was a "X" that you clicked on to remove an URL from auto-complete.
(Slightly related, how do you view the list of auto-complete URLs stored?)

Go to History, put the mouse over the entry you want to remove and click on the "X" in the right.

Not sure, maybe in "web data"?

Thank you leocg; it is a little bit tedious (I don't think they can be deleted from the address bar) but I tested it with one website and it seems to have worked.
To clarify, under the Opera menu -> History (or Ctrl-H)
In the search bar I entered the name of the website I wanted to clear from auto-complete and deleted all of the entries.
This isn't exactly the same as deleting the auto-complete entries but it appears to have worked.
