My computer wasnt shut down right. it was turned off right from the button and didnt get to close anything down. now when i try to delet the history of the computer the sites wont go away. i know that when the computer is shut down wrong the sites get corrupted or something so they cant be deleted. does anyone know how i can get rid of these or if there is a free program that i can download?
thanks
Google for evidence eliminator there are others but it's the only one to com e to mind right now. It should be able to clear those out for you.
I also have issues with deleting history in IE. Try deleting any entries from "My Computer" forst, and then deleting the rest. I don't know why this works, but it does for me...

The official Microsoft utility TweakUI has this functionality, I think under the Paranoia tab. For Windows XP, download it from http://www.microsoft.com/windowsxp/pro/downloads/powertoys.asp -- for Windows 2000 or earlier, download it from http://www.microsoft.com/ntworkstation/downloads/PowerToys/Networking/NTTweakUI.asp.
