I am currently running windows XP service pack 2 and internet explorer
7.
Recently i noticed that when i clean out my cache, delete temporary
files works and delete cookies works, but delete browsing history just
runs and runs forever never completeing. I can remove it via cc
cleaner, but i cant seem to fix IE 7's problem. Does anyone know of a
solution to fix this problem in explorer? Is there something i can
change in the registry or in safe mode to fix this?

In Internet Explorer select Tools, Internet Options, Advanced, Browsing,
Settings
check how many days history is being retained..

Gerry, thank you for the reply. I believe it is set to the standard 21
day time frame. Still, i have had that setting for a long while and it
never has done this before. Also, i did do a cc clean and then
reopened the browser to try the delete history function and it still
did the same thing. If there isnt anything in there, it shouldnt
matter how many days I set it at, should it?

Any other thoughts?
