I want to retain my typed URLs

I guess the subject line says it all. For some reason, and this has only
just begun to happen, when I reboot my computer all my typed URLS in IE6 are
deleted. This only happens on a reboot, I can close and open IE6 before
rebooting and the typed URLs are retained, however on a reboot they are
deleted. I haven't set anything up to do this and in fact would like to
retain my typed URLs. Can anyone help me with retaining my typed URLs?

Hi,
Is a third-party security/privacy program doing this? Have you just
installed any new programs or toolbars?

Earlier versions of TweakUI (Win 9x) could clear the TypedURLs list at
logon, but that option isn't in Powertoys/TweakUI for XP.

Hope this helps,

Have you done anything to clear your Run or Recent Documents history.
Some cleanup programs will do this, too.
 
I don't have any new programs installed to do this. I do have Crap Cleaner
installed, I have had it for months and it's worked well, but I don't have
it setup to delete IE6 histories. Is there anyway of me getting the typed
URLs to stay there? Some modification in the registry maybe? Where would I
find a program that may be deleting the URLs on startup? I've looked at
starup programs and processes and there doesn't appear to be anything
there.. Thanks for the suggestions guys, I really do appreciate your help
with this.
