    How do you stop IE 7 from displaying "my computer" in the history. Besides my internet history, it has a "my computer" icon also and is tracking my activities. TIA.

    Windows XP SP2.

    catania62 is right broni - My Computer is listed in IE History and shows some detail of activity on the computer.

    No idea how to stop just that from being shown except to set History to 0 days in Internet Options.

    My computer

    I think it is a setting because it is not on my laptop in IE7 but I am unable to delete it. Setting the history to zero, it still captures it but obviously is gone the next day. It doesn't zero it out even when you close all browsers.
