When I try to delete my recent browsing history (mostly to delete the cache) the delete recent history button is greyed out so I can't click on it. How can I clear my cache?

Under the history link there is a button "clear recent history" but it is greyed out so I can't click on it. I want to clear my cache because I hate autofill. I've already changed my settings so it won't remember anymore things, but how can I clear what's already there?
