Thanks for your clarification too.
(I usually paste, rather than tYpE.

There is one connection between History and the "TypedURLs",
in this from IE6 Help:

: URLs, deleting previous Address bar entries

: To delete Autocomplete entries from the Address bar list

: The AutoComplete feature saves previous entries you've made for Web
: addresses, forms, and passwords. To delete entries from the Address bar,
: you must clear your History folder. You cannot clear individual entries
: from the list of saved entries.

: On the Tools menu in Internet Explorer, click Internet Options.
: Click the General tab.
: Under History, click Clear History.

: * Notes
: • When typing information in Web forms, and typing passwords, you can
: remove an item from the list of suggestions by clicking the item and
: then pressing the DELETE key.

Also:

: To adjust AutoComplete settings

: You can configure AutoComplete to save and suggest only the information
: you want. You can choose whether to use AutoComplete for Web addresses,
: forms, and passwords, or not use it all. You can also clear the history
: for any of these.

: 1. In Internet Explorer, on the Tools menu, click Internet Options.
: 2. Click the Content tab.
: 3. Under Personal information, click AutoComplete.
: 4. Select the check boxes for the AutoComplete options you want to use.
[end Help]

FWIW.
