In my history file (when searching history), I have shortcuts that I cannot
delete through deleting history. How do I delete these internet shortcuts.

Thank you,

Try also...
CCleaner (freeware), from http://www.ccleaner.com/
About CCleaner, courtesy of Sandi Hardmeier - Microsoft MVP: "Be very very
VERY careful with CCleaner. We are seeing a lot of problems with that
software removing hotfix data making it impossible to uninstall IE7 and any
other hotfix/update."

And...
Free History Eraser (deletes also index.dat files):

The History folder can be deleted manually:

Then set your IE cache (TIF folder size) at about 50/60 mb.
