During the past few weeks I face the following problem: My IE 7 does not keep the history of the websites visited! I had installed the google toolbar, that used when worked properly, to hold for weeks the "keywords" in the search box that I had written which does not any more and furthermore does not keep none of them apart form 5 particular keywords (or phrases) that were searched before the problem occurs!!! I made a system RESTORE...didn't work...I unistalled and install again the Google Toolbar but didn't work as well! I am really pissed of with this thing!...any suggestions apart from FORMAT?

A format would be absolute overkill.

Check my pictures attached and post back what yours is set to. Thanks. :)

To get to the menu show in the pictures: click on the start orb > in the search box > type internet options > hit enter.

Is exatcly SET as your pictures...but still not hold the history or the usernames on several sites like myspace or facebook so I have anytime I want to login to write my email again or whatever is the usernale apart from the password and to answer to the first user's reply I mean my computer does not keep neither the google's tollbar searches nor the IE 7 Usernames etc...
P.S. The google toolbar has stuck in keeping only 5 specific searches that I typed a long time ago before the problem occurs! Please help..is very frustrating!!!

P.S. 2 As soon as I logged out this page the browser said all my cookies are cleared..? is that the problem and how can I solve it? Or is only one part of my problem...? I wil check it and posted back if solved otherwise post your opinion here...Thank you in advance!

"CrucialHoax" about the AutoCopleteSettings is set again the same with your settings! However, I have Greek Windows and there are some more options if I want to tick in it that are ticked but I don not know how to attach the window's picture as jpeg as you did...is something about from the windows to ask anytime that I login in to a website to keep the password etc..!
Moreover, the pictures that you have attached are different from vista...probably if could you write me down exactly how can I attach pictures like you will help a lot!!!

To attach pictures just type in the start search 'snip' without the quotes. It will show little scissors. Click on that and use that program to take a picture of the screen.

To upload it here just click on the little paper click at the top of the reply form next to the fonts option.

Ok I made it as you taught me...now I have to trasnlate it for you in order to be able to help me!
From the top downwards says:
"AutoCompleteSettings"-->Use AutoComplete for--> 1st Tick (Web Adresses)-->2nd Tick (Browsing History)--->3rd Tick (Favourites)--->4th Tick...not selected (Feed of data)-->5th Tick (Use of Windows Search for better results-->6th Tick (Forms)-->7th Tick (Usernames and passwords for forms' access)-->8th Tick (Question before save access passwords)
Then the option below is for "Delete History of AutoCompleting"

This is the best translation that I can give you...on the other hand if does not help you I can borrow from my sister her claptop with the English Vista ( not available for the time being..maybe tomorrow)...However why your pictures do not include these additional Tick Boxes like mine??Isn't from Vista Environment?
Thnak you very much in advance for your help!

Yes it is in Greek and in it is included the following subwindow illustrated in the picture and it has ticked "Cookies" "History" etc...:
Shall I "untick" all these boxes?

Run malwarebytes and virus scan. If nothing shows up, we could look at upgrading to IE 8. I think ZigZag asked if you were using the Google search box. What was the answer? Does this happen with Firefox?

Ok! Athough, I have done it before...malware...and virus scan I will give another go! The first time I had some malware problems that solved (98%) and virus problems tha solved again about (95%)...so this maybe the problem...as soon as I got some results I will post them here as pictures to have a look...However, mozilla looks to work smoothly every time that I try to open it a message propmts that when is the time I will post it as well as YES I have this problem with the google search bar...it kept only 5 SPECIFIC searches that I did before the problem occurs!
Thank you and I will leave you posted as soon as finished the scanning (Malwares' Bytes-Anti Malware,,AVG 8.0 Pro and Registry Fix)
