I want to delete website addresses from the address bar. I should just be able to highlight the address and press 'delete'. I do that and the address disappears, but then I click the drop down arrow and they are all still there. Someone said to try shift+del and that didn't work either. And using the 'Clear recent history/browsing and download history' doesn't clear it out either. How do I do it to make it stay deleted?

Entries in the location bar drop down list with a yellow (blue on Mac) star at the right end are bookmarks.
You can remove such a bookmarked item that shows in the list if you open that url in a tab and click the yellow star in the location bar.
This will open the Edit This Bookmark dialog and you can click the Remove button to remove the bookmark if you want to remove such a bookmarked entry.

The stuff in the address bar that I can't get rid of is NOT bookmarked. So that's not the problem either.
