History can be in many different locations and formats depending on what browser you're using and version.

Super Winspy is a free history viewer that works with many different browsers.

MasterRacker thanks.
is there anyway to write a script to view it?
for example, what's the location of it in I.E. and FireFox?

It's not that simple. In IE, it's not just one file, the actual number of files per user may be different depending on IE version and their locations may vary depending on OS version and IE version. I don't know details on how FF does it.

Do a search on your local disk, including hidden and system file for "index.dat" and you will see what I mean. You will see a handfull of them just for your user profile.
