New/current users seeing my IE history !

[Lockstock2SB]

Hi All

Our 2003 PS4 servers are starting to act strangely. When i create a new user, when you open IE you can see the history from my old (deleted) profile. Some other current users have also told us they see them !

They have roaming profiles and they retain all their settings. Why would IE suddenly decide to give new users etc my old history !? How do i stop it ? It looks like its picking it up from the server somewhere but i cant find where ?

I was thinking about applying a reg entry in the usrlogon.cmd to remove the history but thats just masking the issue...

Any ideas ?

Cheers

Steve

Was it possible you were in, install mode while you were using the internet?

Hi Joe,

I think i may have solved it. Previously IE was running ok with no weird history issues, and all new apps were installed properly in install mode. As a last ditch attempt to solve the problem i deleted all trace of my profile from both servers in the farm, and deleted it from the domain also. That seems to have fixed the problem.

I also tried clearing the TypedUrls keys from HKCU and HU.. and that fixes the problem temporarily - but i think in order to get a better result all users must be logged off the server, as if there are IE sessions open when you clear the registry entries i think it writes them back...

Either way deleting the profile completely appears to have fixed the problem. Can't explain how the hell the history started to appear on other users sessions... nothing changed !?

Thanks for your reply

Cheers

Steve
