You're welcome. Glad it's doing the job for you.

Wow! This is unbelievable freeware! Not only is it free, but it
deletes
those entries. Not only that, but it makes it easier to review entries
and,
in an orderly way, delete everything from the whole list that needs to be
deleted - instead of one "Day folder" at a time. It also reveals
everything
that's still in the IE History file that's not showing in Local
Settings>History because it was "deleted."

Thanks for a great tip!

Possible workaround...
IEHistoryView from http://www.nirsoft.net/utils/iehv.html Use "Find" in
HistoryView then try to delete selected entries. IEHistoryView appears
to
delete entries from the index.dat file rather than the History folder.
