I just tried to revisit a site from yesterday. History doesn't turn up
anything between 2 weeks ago and Today. What's happened to the intervening
period?

Hi,
Some possibilities:
1. Another user is clearing the History.
2. TweakUI... paranoia tab.
3. Another privacy program or toolbar. I've heard of an Earthlink browser
add-on that can clear the History automatically.
4. History problems can be caused by the ActiveX Control filters in McAfee
AntiVirus. If you disable the "Active X Controls" filter under the Internet
Filters in VirusScan the IE History should work properly.

5. Or... Your History folder may be damaged.

Last, but not least, is keep History (Internet Options> General) set to a
reasonable number of days?

Hope this helps,
Don
