I cannot seem to expand the history folders beyond the
current day. I have it set for 20 days and 8 folders are
listed, but none will open or expand. If I look for a
site I visited yesterday the folder will not open. I
know it's probably 1 setting, but which one? Any help
would be appreciated.
 
Kathleen,
Possibly your History folder is corrupt:
[XP\2K]
Log on as Administrator and delete the desired <username> folder(s).
[example]
"C:\Documents and Settings\username\Local Settings\HISTORY"

Note: McAfee AV with ActiveX controls enabled is known to cause History
problems.
