Internet Explorer History

It depends on your history settings.

Most of the time, the history files are deleted after 1 month, or less.

For IE, if you want a list of History items for a given date,
Using Windows Explorer, browse to the folder C:\windows\history
click on tools,
find,
files and folders,
set the date to the day you want,
click search.

In the results box, will be a list of history items for that date.

Netscapes history is in a compressed file.
Open Netscape, click on communicator, tools, history.
Sort the list by date.

This is for IE only. To view all webpage history available to you in IE click on View on the menu bar, click on Explorer bar, Click on history. That will open a history box on your browser window. there you can see all history available to you. Click on view and it will give you four different sort criteria. If it does not go back far enough into the past you need to change the history setting.

Click on tools, click on internet options, under the general tab is a section at the bottom calledhistory and adjust the "days to keep in history" setting to as long as you want it - Max 999 days or almost 3 years. It will keep that many days in history from the day you set it on. Be advised that persons who do not want this history kept on their machines often change it to 0 thereby preventing other persons to use the history file to track their surfing. The user can also click on the clear history button each time they are finished.

The second answer is a good one but I think you should be able to go to the cookies file and find all history in your computer if you have not deleted the cookies. It holds everything in there.

Try looking in your temporary Internet files. This can be done by going into the control panel and clicking on internet options. Then on the general page click on settings button within the temporary Internet files section. Then click on view files. Although if someone doesn't want you to see these they can easily delete them.

If you want to find all the web pages that you visited then you should check History but it depends on the amount of Space you have allotted.

Go to Tools > Internet Options
On the General Tab you would find a heading History.

Enter the Number of days you want to keep the pages in the History and also go to Temporary Internt Files > Settings > and incrase the Disk Space to use.

I hope this helps you.
