Anyway to hide QueryString in browser?

I use some links to go to a ASP page using ?Field=name   etc...
But later in the browser you can see these strings, is there anyway to hide the querystring so the browser doesn't keep them in the list. I'm using IE 5 by the way.

You can create frameset and target the link to a frame. This way the URL (and the query string) will not be shown in the location bar unless the user right click and view the property of the page.

Note: If you want to see the web page on the full window and do not want to divide the page into frames which will restrict the page, you can create a frameset with a dummy frame with 0 pixel height.

If you are using a form, what about using POST instead of GET.

oh well I was using Links, no forms on these links. I have the page already in a Frame setting where it hides it from the browser initialy, but if you start to type in the address, the querystrings still come up.
If no one can answer that question, how about them using ASP to refresh a page when it loads it back up. I keep getting old data and have to manually hit refresh
