Default 2 Questions please

Hi i am new here and haveread a few posts so i thought i would ask for 2 questions to be answered as well.

1.
When i double click on the my computer icon i see icons like c drive d drive etc etc but am i correct in thinking that under these icons should be the free space available,because there is no writing/text at all just the icon,would be nice to see this text so i dont have to click on properties every time.

2.
When i click on the history folder it shows me for each day what sites have been looked at,can i some how see a date next to each result or does anyone know of a freeware programme that will let me see the time of each site visited when i look in the history folder.

Thanks very much for any advice given.

Hi ibpr21054
I have found this IE HistoryView: Freeware Internet Explorer History Viewer
It looks like it will do the job (scroll down to download).

Thats the boy worked a treat thanks very much.

One other thing,
Anyone know where i can obtain a password recovery tool as i have forgottem the password.
Only 1 document needs to be opened.
I have had a look around and the only one that worked is $30 made by rixler software which is a lot more than i expected as it will only open one file then have to pay again.
What i need is someone or some software that will open the document so i can copy & paste the text and use a new password that i can remember.
Anyone have such a programe.
Thanks
