IE7 History folder permissions

[uecorp]

I have administrator access. How do you access the security tab for IE7 History folder to remove "delete" privelege.

I found the "user"\Local Settings\History folder, but there is no option for "Sharing and Security". The icon for the History folder, doesn't even look like a regular folder icon.

I want to be able to look at the history of sites being visited but don't want them to be able to delete it.

Thank you.

Dan

Have a look at any Group Policy settings available for Internet Explorer and History.

For more information about Index.dat, super hidden files and Desktop.ini you might want to research the whole story at this site. The article is Windows 9x related but the story of Desktop.ini and Index.dat files is pretty much applicable to XP.

Paragraph 4 and 5 are worth reading.
