Try the following and see if it helps:

Sometimes things don't work as they should. Re-create a new History Folder;
perhaps it's become corrupt.

Or try installing TweakUI.

Log on as Administrator and delete the desired <username> folder and reboot.
(or log on as another user that has Administrator privileges)
Example: "C:\Documents and Settings\username\Local Settings\HISTORY"
You may also have to go to Safe Mode to delete files/folders.
A Description of the Safe Mode Boot Options in Windows XP
This article discusses the several Safe Boot options that Windows supports.
These options load a minimal set of drivers. You can use these options to
start Windows so that you can modify the registry or load or remove drivers.

If these steps do not resolve your problem, please post back to this thread
with the details and any error messages.
Hope this helps
