There is nothing in my history box anymore

[Me]

I have my preferences set to remember my history for 7
days, yet the history box on the left never displays
anything. It doesn't even have the "Today" or "Yesterday"
or "Last Week" or anything like that. It is just blank. It
does have "View" and "Search" buttons, but that's it.

I have had thsi problem since yesterday. Anyone know how
to fix it? Thanks.

History problems can be caused by the ActiveX Control filters in McAfee
AntiVirus. If you disable the "Active X Controls" filter under the Internet
Filters in VirusScan the IE History should work properly.

Or... Your History folder may be damaged.
Free History Eraser from
http://smartprotector.com/eraser/free-history-eraser.htm will delete the
History folder and a new one will be created when you restart.

Or the History folder can be deleted manually:

Hope this helps,
