Although the History Folder in my IE6 browser shows
collapsed dates going back five weeks, the actual sites
visited appear only in Today's expanded date. All of the
other expanded dates are empty. I was unable to find a
solution at the MS Knowledge Base site. Thanks.
 
Hi,
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.

Or... Your History folder may be damaged.
Free History Eraser from
http://smartprotector.com/eraser/free-history-eraser.htm will delete the
History folder and a new one will be created when you restart.

Or the History folder can be deleted manually:

Hope this helps,
