View Your Browsing History SUMMARY: Display a list of the websites you've recently visited with Internet Explorer 7.
By default, Internet Explorer 7 keeps tracks of the most-recent websites you have visited. This way, you can easily return to a website you have recently visited even if you forgot its web address.

Click on the down-arrow next to "History" to bring up the list of sorting options, then make your selection to resort your History items.
