when I run disk clean up and norton web clean (which won't run at all cause it's telling me to close all opn browsers) there remains approx. 140 kb listed as being in the internet history. This happens with nothing running to my knowledge (including messenger) From the task manager it says no applications are running and I really don't have any idea which process' should or should not be running. For any help or ideas, thank you.
 
Your 140 kB file could be "documents and settings\username\local settings\history\history.ie5\index.dat". You can view this file only if you're logged in from an other administrator account. Normally you can delete it safely, Windows will recreate the file. According to MS this file stores the complete history of visited websites since first install of the system for "performance reasons"
