I cannot get the history to clear. Yesterday, when I
tried, it would clear, and then reappear as soon as I
launched again and started a "path.

Any ideas or suggestions?
 
Hi Lisa,

Assuming you have deleted Hiostory from IE, Tools, Options, you have to edit
the registry to clean the content of
HKEY_USERS\<userID>\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\TypedURLs.

Kind regards

Lisa,
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"
