I assure you this is different but my browsing history is not showing up!!!

My thing is that how can your browsing history work after 8 months and still have your webpages and websites?

I think the general consensus on this is "Why do you need it to?"

Never have liked IE. People have so many problems with IE.  IMHO there are so many better browsers out there.  I have IE Browser but rarely use it. My default it Google Chrome and Firefox backup. 

I do have this question. How come before I was able to retrieve my websites and web pages up to 20 wks. ago in the browsing history and now, I may go a week or two before I delete the browsing history?

I think that's what everybody was trying to help with, until you "solved" the issue of your disappearing histories by deleting them, which seems to sort of defeat the purpose.

For the record, my FF history on this laptop goes back to July... But I never use the History feature, because it's a pain to navigate in firefox.

I have yet another dumb question. Could the reason why I have to delete my browsing history so much is that I have two users yet only one computer. In other words, when I turn the computer on I have two names I can log into, JACK or JACK Catalano but I only have one computerl Do you think thats the reason why I have to delete my history so much? Should I get rid of one of my user names? How would I be able to do that?

I have a question. How come I have to delete my browsing history after a week or two? I used to be able to wait 10 or 12 weeks before I had to delete it and now I have to delete the browsing history often. Why is that? Can somebody help me, please?


And yes, I do bookmark pages but still, once I delete the history, I have to start all over again typing in passwords for sites and typing in websites etc.

Also, I am logged on as two different users, JACK and JACK CATALANO. If thats a problem, how do I get rid of it?

If you guys read my 3 above posts, what should I do about my browsing history because its giving me a problem. The problem is that the history is not acknowleging the webpages and websites that I have visited. I just cleared out the history last week!! Please help!!

Jack, If I remember correctly you do not use favourites / bookmarks do you? You instead use the history...

Mistake NO1 ^

Now, all that screwing about with your system, using system restore, clearing the history leads me to assume user fault. Also you seem to ignore given advice and just repeat what you have done before... this will get you nowhere.

Unless I missed something, you didn't reinstall IE...  SO DO IT http://support.microsoft.com/kb/318378

The link that you gave me, I used. It mentions Microsoft Fix It Center which I used and everything is fine based on  using Microsoft Fix It Center

I wanted to show you something. When I look at my Add-Ons, there are a couple with numbers that are listed. So here it is:

Real Networks Inc.                                        Load Time        Navigation Time
          Realplayer Download and Recording        0.01s
Symantec Corporation
          Symantec Intrusion Prevention               0.02s
         Symantec NCO BHO                               0.00s                     0.03s
         Norton Toolbar                                       0.04s


Now based on what I just posted above, would this be the reason why I keep losing my browsing history?? I would like to keep realplayer and Symantec but what should I do??

Im not ignoring everyones advice, its just I dont know what the *censored* Im doing. Everything is foreign to me. Like I mentioned earlier, the problem is that I was able to see my browsing history from 20-25 weeks ago before and now its not even a week and I have to delete my history because it wont acknowledge the webpages and websites that Im on. Why is it doing that? How come I used to be able to see what websites and webpages from a month or two ago and now if I dont delete my history every 2 weeks Im lucky.

Use another browser if IE gives you so much confusion. AND remove Real Player so as to avoid any unknown zip files that you have been mentioning being downloaded to your PC.

Hi!! I'm wondering if you have any of these ticked ??

Hi!! Also observe the number of days you want to keep history( lower right hand corner)

I have 2 Users on one computer, one as JACK and one as Jack Catalano. Im thinking if I can have only one user for one computer, I think I can fix the problem. How do I get just one user for one computer?
