`History' not working and other problems

M

My IE6 has been plying up for a little while now.
According to the `about' menu, I am on version
6.0.2800.1106.xpsp2030422-1633IS using windows XP home.

The latest bug is that the history function does not
work. When I press the history button the pane opens and
the days are shown, but when I click them to expand them
nothing happens.

Other small bugs are that when I open IE it does not
always come up with a connect window and I have to
manually click on my ISP connect icon (always dial my
default conncetion is checked in the connections
menu).Sometimes even when the connect menu does appear
and I try to connect I get a message "unable to establish
a connection" and I have to hit my cdonnecvt icon on the
toolbar, whereas other times it will connect fine

Also it will only occassionaly disconnect itself when it
is idle, even if I tell it to do so after 10 mins. This
has proved costly once or twice when I have been using a
Pay as you go ISP and my kids have left it connected for
a couple of hours.

All service pack updates are installed.
I have tried to repair IE by following the instructions
on the article on this site but no joy.

Help very much appreciated.

are you sure its IE and not some other program you have
or something you don't know you have?
