History Button

Cannot clear history in Internet explorer.
The "Clear History" button is faded out, as is "days to
keep pages in history:"

Thanks for any help.

Here is a way that might work but I don't know because I can clear my history. What you can do is open up the History folder and right click on the website (it shows up as a folder) and that clears all the pages in it. If that dosen't work who knows what will. Also if you want I might be able to give you info on why it is that way. Here is what i need to detirmin

IE Version: Win Version: Are you on a domain:

XP Pro?

Start | Run | Type: gpedit.msc | OK
Navigate to >>
Local Computer Policy\User Configuration\Administrative Templates\Windows
Components\Internet Explorer\
Disable changing history settings
[[Prevents users from changing the history settings for the browser.
If you enable this policy, the settings in the History area on the General
tab in the Internet Options dialog box appear dimmed.
If you disable this policy or do not configure it, users can change the
number of days to store Web page information and clear Web page history.
If you set the "Disable the General page" policy (located in \User
Configuration\Administrative Templates\Windows Components\Internet
Explorer\Internet Control Panel), you do not need to set this policy,
because the "Disable the General page" policy removes the General tab from
the interface.]]
