Isthere any way to make the Jump List forthe Internet Explorer icon to NOT populate? I'm curious because there doesn't seem to be any way to disable this feature. I've set my Internet Explorer history setting to zero days, yet the jump list still fills with historical pages... I know many very paranoid people that will not like this one bit...

Have you looked atPCSafeguard info from IStartedSomething.com ? That might work for your paranoid folks.

I can see this being used in a corporate environment, a testing lab, or a public kiosk environ, but I can't see this as a very useful option for home users. Can you imagine the explosion of emotion you'd be subject to when your kid(s) found out the 5 hours of gameplay they just did wasn't saved because all changes and files are thrown away! wow! I feel for the poor schmoe that enables this on his kids' accounts... LOL Anyway... Interesting suggestion, but I'm still looking for a solution to the Jump List. Even that wouldn't prevent the list from populating while still logged in. It may remove the entries at logoff, but they still appear... Thanks for the tip, though... I may have to look deeper into this for my corporate users when Windows 7 comes out, or look into the current options that article mentioned that are already available for XP. I have a few corporate machines that are used like kiosk machines that I get tired of having to "fix" because some (swear word here) decides it's suddently their personal computer...

I've yet to find a teenager that is paranoid :-) Windows Steady State is the name of the XP and Vista era 'freeze' program for PCs.

My use of "In private" browsing does not add to the IE jump list.Rating posts helps other users Mark L. Ferguson MS-MVP
