IE8 - drop down menu for previous URLs inactive

I have a Toshiba G32 running XP SP3. I have just installed IE8 'cos I
was fed up with IE7 continually complaining about visiting sites with
old code especially those with embedded music files. As far as I can
tell IE8 is OK - except for one aspect. The URL drop down menu refuses
to capture previously visited web sites. This is a pain when I click
on the ' v ' at the right of the URL address field and nothing is
listed. At least in previous IEs this drop down menu would list about
10 to 15 previously visited URLs. I don't display the History panel on
the left of the main window 'cos I like an uncluttered window for the
web page content I'm looking at. Why doesn't the drop menu work
anymore? And how can I get it to remember URLs visited? Thanks - CJB.
