Browser history stopped working.

Internet Explorer stopped recording any new history. Number of days and disk space is correct. It creates day of the week history folders but they are empty. All old history is fine. No settings changed or new programs installed.

Was there a question in there somewhere?
If my replies look messed up, I'm sorry. I use Safari on a Mac the majority of the time, and the web hasn't really caught up yet.

The statements: "Browser history stopped working" or "Internet Explorer stopped recording any new history" isn't sufficient information to make the problem apparent?
Learn to read between the lines a little instead of posting sardonic remarks.

Reminds me of the time someone posted "MSN isn't working" and expected us to jump to the gun.
I wasn't being sardonic, I was just having a little fun, and if people on these boards can't take it, I'll take my business elsewhere. Plenty of other forums appreciate my humour -- obviously it's not so here.
People need to live a little.
As to the original issue, a shoot and run solution would be to sys.restore to before the problem occurred.
