Is this a home computer?  Then you need to long on as another account and change your account to be an administrator.\n\nIf this is a company computer, which I suspect, cal your help-desk and discuss this issue with them.  There is probably a reason you are not allowed to delete your IE history.  They can also put you in contact with the system administrator.

I'm assuming you've exhausted your History choices and Windows Search routines. You know that you can go into Windows Logs and find out when the computer was started, and if there are any errors, it will log the program name. But that's about it.\n\nUnless you are running some sort of Key Logger program, you won't know where a person has been on your computer, or which Folders were opened, because there is no change to a "Folder" when it is opened or closed, and you don't re-save a Folder once it's made. Neither is a Program File usually changed or re-saved, so there's no way to tell which programs have been run. But a data file is different. \n\nYou don't say what you are trying to do or find out. If you are trying to find a file that you've lost or used before, then it's one way, but if you're trying to track someone using your computer, it's another way.\n\nEach time you open a data file, the date stamp is reset when it is closed. So if you are looking for a recently used data file, all you do is look for the most recent Dates. \n\nThe easiest way to do this is in a DOS window, from the Command Prompt. Click on Start, All Programs, Accessories, the click on Command Prompt to open a Dos window.\n\nAt the C:&#92; prompt, type the following:  dir date /od\n\nYou are doing a Directory sort by Date, with the latest dates last, at the bottom, so you can easily see which files have been changed or used lately.\n\nNow change directories to another Folder and do the same thing. to get Help on any DOS command, like CD or CHDIR, for Change Directory, just type the command followed by a slash and a question mark, like this  CD /?\n\nDOS has a problem with Names or Folder Names that have spaces in them. It thinks there are two separate names. So if you want to change directories to MY DOCUMENTS, then you have to enclose the whole name in parentheses, like this\nCD "MY DOCUMENTS"\n\nOr use the Explorer address bar to drag the address into your DOS window, and it will fill in the long filenames and directories for you.\n\nIf you're not familiar with DOS, you're going to have trouble, so get someone who is familiar with DOS to check all of the different directories.

Hi there,\n\nI assume you are running Internet Explorer under windows.\n\nThe complete steps are described here : http://www.techjunkeez.com/archive/registry_hacks/disable_IE_clear_history.htm

Bollox,  all your answers are Bollox, Except one. I'm not being abusive, but look at the state of it! A Mess.. the guy asked for information to help solve the problem, not to be told to reinstall Windows!\n\nROX has the best answer here, by far. I mean, It's helpful for god's sake!\n\nGeeze...

Whoa!  Bad things!\n\nThe superuser has ultimate power over the system, and therefore has complete control of the system, including the ability to completely demolish the filesystem.\n\nThe root of the UNIX filesystems is denoted by a single dot (".")\n\nIf a program with appropriate permissions executes the unlink (effectively a delete) command, it will remove the pointer to the root inode, and hence the entire filesystem will be lost.  Granted, the data will still be there but useless now.

check your cookie settings, either iexplorer isnt keeping your cookies or you have some secuity software running that is deleting it.

if you know the name of it you can search for "remove ____" something might come up.\n\nif it recently started doing this, you might try System Restore and go back to when it was OK.\n\nprograms - accesories - system tools - system restore

It worked!! I've spent almost all afternoon/evening trying to get this irritating thing off my laptop! But there still is one tray icon with the tooltip "Virus Alert". And a small popup that says Your Computer is Infected! Critical System. Did any of you face the same problem?

Well you can try typing C:&#92;Documents and Settings&#92;[User Name]&#92;Local Settings&#92;Temporary Internet Files in run.  But if you cleared your cache there isn't much hope of finding the files again.  Sorry, if this doesn't help.  God Bless.

hi\niexplorer.exe is the "Internet Explorer" application...\nit may be in trouble processing...just end the process.. it may happen because of many instances of the application were asked to run by clicking it many times or by hitting the Enter button many times while it is active or when loading a pop-up page from a web page and the Windows Firewall is trying to block it ... or it is trying to load a web page with troubles or the application itself is no longer working properly... it is so known that WinXp and later is a smart system..just end the process and it will work properly after that...if u face more troubles about the same application just update your system by clicking the "windows update" from your start menu....or just download a fresh -new- version of the IE application and install it.... it is important to use IE but it is not critical to be afraid to end the process .... just end it..\n\nand for other processes it is so normal to run many processes...and it is true that some of them slow down the performance of your PC cause they use alot of memory to run...just locate the process that is running under your username and it is so safe to end them if needed but those which are running under system or network service or local service..please dont end...the may affect your system...\n\nabout some answers telling u that if u ended the iexplorer.exe , your desktop will disappear...it is not true..the may mean Explorer.exe...which is Windows Explorer in oldest Windwos system and it is so important to run the graphical Interface u c .. I mean the icons and menues ...etc...\n\njust end the iexplorer.exe but dont end Explorer.exe\n\nenjoy it

There's a way to deactivate that menu. If you have Win Xp and if it starts, click Start -> system panel or configuration panel (something panel) -> then in the panel window look for SYSTEM and click twice on it -> in the next window click on ADVANCED in the choices at the top of the window. then under ADVANCED you'll find 3 buttons called parameters, click on the 3rd, in the next window unmark the two first option-squares and click OK. Restart your computer.Please if this works(I hope), give me ten points. Thank you. Good luck.

Are you getting a message that you \nare low on memory? If so, post the error message and what you were doing \nwhen you got it, such as surfing the web, editing photos and so on.

Clear the History .  Go to TOOLS, Internet OPTIONS , Temporary Internet files, select delete files.  that should do it.  Trying to hide where youv'e been?   Hm?

I have XP in my system. Whenever I see spywares in my system, I immediately rollback to previous system restore point. (It is in Accesories->SystemTools->SystemRestore.)

You will have find out who is the administrator for your computer! That is the only way to remove any programs from Windows XP or 2000. Those questions are security questions to make sure they have the right person for your computer to delete any programs. The administrator is the person who has control of everything on your computer. Does anyone else use your computer? Administrator is the main ID on your computer. You obviously, don't have Administrative rights on your computer to add or remove programs etc. Sorry.You can go to Windows webpage and read up on this too.
