Internet explorer 7 - have to delete all history before pages render?

[reggiep]

This weird problem has popped up on our network in the last two weeks or so.

It seems to happen most when our staff try to go to our email http://www.outlook.com.

The page does not render and just a blank screen appears. The page renders again fine if they go to tools > Internet options > Delete browsing history > Delete all.

 

I think the quickest fix to rid me and my users of this problem is to automate the deletion of users history either at log off, log on, or when the browser is shut.

 

I am however stuck on how I could achieve this, I can't find any settings for a gpo and my scripting skills are minimal.

 

Could somebody help please?

 

Thanks

I found this script in the end...

@ECHO OFF
ECHO Deleting current user's Temporary Files, Cookies, History, Form Data and Stored Passwords
RunDll32.exe InetCpl.cpl,ClearMyTracksByProcess 1
RunDll32.exe InetCpl.cpl,ClearMyTracksByProcess 2
RunDll32.exe InetCpl.cpl,ClearMyTracksByProcess 8
RunDll32.exe InetCpl.cpl,ClearMyTracksByProcess 16
RunDll32.exe InetCpl.cpl,ClearMyTracksByProcess 32
RunDll32.exe InetCpl.cpl,ClearMyTracksByProcess 255
ECHO Done!
PAUSE

 

It was here Delete IE7 History From the Command Line

 

Now just got to work out whether to run it at log in or log off.
