Hi, my MSN Explorer (webbrowser, not messenger) messed up a bit the other day.
The thing is that.... well, I don't exactly know what it's called, but you know, it usually saves the links visited during the last 30 days in the browser field, and thoose links won't show up anymore, so I have to type every single character in every link I wish to visit.
That's pretty annoying; I thought that it had something to do with a cookies setting, but it doesn't seem so.

If anybody could tell me how to get this up working again, it would be appreciated

(And no, I won't start using FireFox )

Browser history you mean. Is it still doing it even after you have visited the sites at least once?

Yes, it's been doing this for almost 48 hours by now; no matter how much you visit whatever, it still doesn't show up.

Have a look in the options, perhaps you accidently turned it off or something.

@Benjamin: No settings changed (can't even find any such settings, more than one option, which is set to 'activate').

@fighting spirit: For me, it just opens in hotmails webmailclient (in the current MSN explorer window).
That probably only works if you've got an @hotmail.com or @msn.com adress registered along with your browser though.

@fighting spirit - I don't think you can get MSN to switch to Firefox. On my work computer EVERY program opens up Firefox if I click on a link, EXCEPT MSN. Obviously the smart guys at MS have done this on purpose as MSN doesn't pay attention to your default browser. Pity really.
