Turn off the ActiveX part of McAfee's Internet Filter

or.......


If you have McAfee AV running:

McAfee gave this solution to the bug where VirusScan 6 stops your Internet
Explorer History file working.


Open VirusScan console
Select "Pick a task..."
Select "Change my VirusScan settings"
Select "Configure VShield background scanning"
Select "Customise your VShield settings"

Select the "Internet Filter" icon from the icons down the left hand side On
the "Detection" tab, in the 'Applet filters' section, remove the tick next
to "ActiveX Controls".

or..............

Run regedit and navigate to:

HKEY_CURRENT_USER|Software|Microsoft|Internet Explorer|Main

and insure that Save_Session_History_On_Exit is marked YES and not NO. (I
just checked mine, and it is set to NO by default).

or.............


You might need to delete the damaged History folder- a new one will be
created on restart.

All addresses disappear or only older ones?

Windows version, please?

If this is a sudden, new problem (vs an ongoing one), its probably the
affect of hijackware/Trojanware, though your "cache" may itself be damaged.

I have tried all what you suggested,

Please specify if that included deleting History in any way.

after 2 days my addresses in the address bar dissapear.

Which list? The one you see when your press F4
or the list which drops down when you start typing
in the Address bar?

Has your History changed too? Press Ctrl-H, Alt-w,D

If these are changes that you are only noticing *after* doing
all the deletion activity which Jan had you doing I suspect
you just need to wait until your History builds up again.


Please describe your problem symptoms more precisely
so we can understand what it is that you are seeing.
