Have you tried these?
IE - Tools - Delete Browsing History - History - Delete History - Close.
Or
IE - Tools - Internet Options - General Tab - Browsing History - Delete - Close.
Refer to this Tutorial for the automatic way as well.

Have you considered going back to IE7 or using Firefox?

I can understand your frustation. As for being on a third hard drive - wow! 
That's not good.

Is the computer or newest hard drive still under warranty?
A second opinion might be a good idea.

If it's the latter, I bet it won't be the same brand as the current one.
