I was only able to see the .dat files. There is more going on than what I have simple access to. Instead I have decided to encrypt the cgi code parameters since I am using VFP on both ends with the webrowser running within a form. Thanks for the suggestions.

>>Actually I can't get to them that way since the history folder is a system folder that adir can not access. Ideally I would like to turn off history logging within IE while the app is running. Does anyone know a a call to IE that would make this possible or a way at getting at these shortcuts (deleting them) with VFP?.
