Hello:

My MSIE history information is missing.

To be more precise only most of it is missing. See below.

I should note I am using Windows XP.

If online, I click on View > Explorer Bar > History, the history window pops up on the left side of my monitor. Of the options I see when I click on the "view" in THAT window: viz. "by date, by site, by most visited, by order visited today", the only one that lists any sites (when it is bulleted) is "by most visited.". If I bullet "by date" 'Monday' appears but shows no sites, though I've visited several on that Monday, and today (for me, Oct. 1) well there's no "Tuesday' even though I've visited several sites today. If I right click 'Monday' and click 'expand' nothing happens. "By site' and "By order visited today" also results in nothing happening.

OK. Microsoft suggested in Q318378 "How to reinstall or Repair Internet Explorer and Outlook Express in Windows XP" that I could reinstall IE 6 of which the latest V. is IE 6 SP1. (First I had to go into the registry and get to "IsInstalled (Reg_Dword) and change its value from 1 to 0); then download IE 6 SP1 and install it and reboot. BUT THAT DID NOT CORRECT THE PROBLEM.

The same Q article had directions for reinstalling XP. Think I should try that? Or what?
