If you're using Communicator 4.0x and want to delete URL histories
routinely, it should be fairly simple to have a batch file delete, or
perhaps better still, overwrite with a "blank" history", the NETSCAPE.HST
file in the \Netscape\Users\USERNAME\ directories (where USERNAME is the
name(s) of the Netscape User Profile(s) that you use...)  This should be
possible via batch file, which, if run minimized, should be pretty well
unnoticable...
