Before launching Netscape, drop into DOS (click Start,
Run, enter 'command', press Enter, CD\ to your Netscape
user directory, find and delete (DEL) the NETSCAPE.HST file,
start up EDIT, press return a few times, save the file
as NETSCAPE.HST in the _same_ subdirectory as the old
.HST file, exit Edit, type 'attrib +r netscape.hst' (minus
quotes), type 'exit' to leave DOS, launch Netscape, and
that should be it.  To test it, go online, visit a few sites,
press CTRL+H.  History window should be blank.

(P. S. The above can be done in Explorer/Notepad, but I
 prefer working at the command line.)
