    hbarski--Are you saying that the only day shown in your History files is Thursday regardless what day of the week you access the History? Or is that just the case today, Friday, the day after Thursday? If the latter, go to IE Tools|Internet Options|General tab and choose a number of "Days to keep the pages in History" greater than one.

    Exactly,the only day that shows is Thursday, no matter what day of the week your on. And, it is always empty, i.e. no links showing under it.
