Jimmy,

Here is the path, you will probably need to script it, but it shouldnt be
that hard. 

HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Internet Settings\Url History
Value:DaysToKeep
Type: REG_DWORD
Value:0x14 (Hex) 20 (Dec) is the default. 

Here is how to find it,

reg query "HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Internet
Settings\Url History" /S

Here is how to change it.
reg update "HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Internet
Settings\Url History\DaysToKeep=24"

Hope this helps, 

I am also currently working on a master list of IE 5.0 and IE 6.0 Settings,
so basically be a cookbook for all to use to lockdown systems, tweak IE etc
etc when needed. Only about 1/2 way through it, but here is another good
item to add to this list. 

I am sure you can use READVALUE and WRITEVALUE from KIX to do the same
thing, and it might be a little bit more flexible.
