Subject: [NTSysADM] Weird IE History issue

I've had this issue for a few weeks now and thought I'd throw it out there.

One of my clients has just done a Citrix deployment and what they are finding 
is every morning, their Internet Explorer History (IE8) has disappeared.

The IE History folder is redirected to a network location using Folder 
Redirection and the data is written there fine. If I open and close multiple 
sessions, the History persists. If I restart the Citrix servers, the data 
persists. It is only when I come in the next morning that it has all gone. It's 
very strange.

It seems that the History folder on the network has the data in it - it just 
doesn't seem to read it properly the next day. I've checked that the GPO that 
sets IE History persistence time is set correctly (7 days) and the Registry 
value corresponds to this.

I've disabled AppSense, put the test server in a GPO with Block Inheritance 
enabled, all to no avail.

I'm wondering now if AV could be to blame, maybe there is some privacy setting 
in Sophos that you can configure to clear a user's History at a specified 
interval? Maybe I am grasping at straws :-)

If anyone has any other ideas I'd be glad to hear them. IE8 on XenApp 6.5 
published app servers running (not surprisingly) Windows 2008 R2.

TIA,



JRR
