Hi All,
When I clicked on the drop down arrow on my address box in the browser, all
the addresses that have been assigned to were gone.
The same thing happens to the drop down box in my "RUN" command. It seems
that the system does not record history anymore.
I have configured the "content tab" in IE auto complete setting so that IE
keeps web addresses, forms and user names and passwords on forms. I checked
my system and there is no virus nor spyware present.
Can any one please help me restoring this, I might have done something or
unchecked something some where.
OS Windows XP Pro SP2 IE 6
Thanks.
yakis

Yes, but I did that about 4 days ago, it should be able to keep the records
by now.

You should be glad.

You are just an identity waiting to be snatched.

There is no cleanup pogram running.
What I did was:
1.Run/%temp% and deleted all the files
2.Run/recent and clean all the files
3.emptied the temp. internet files
4.deleted all cookies
5.clean up by searching : *.tmp,~*.do?,~*.wbk
That's all. Don't know what's up man.
