    Well Google would be a good start as once history os deleted it's GONE for good.
    You can try one of those undelete programs, but In my opinion you're just wasting your time.

    More of what Curlyben posted :)
    Try having Google toolbar because it saves everything of what you have typed and searched for in the search bar in the toolbar(disregarding the history from the internet browser). If nothing else works try searching for free internet utilities which can save the history. By the way, why would like to recover your browsing history?

    If you used Internet Explorer you may have an option:
    What is Index.dat?

    If the history has been cleaned, all you can do is check recycle bin that may still have those folders.

    This is the best place to start if you use IE.
    Google index.dat viewer and download a viewer program. Index.dat is a list of all sites that have been visited by IE. It is not deleted when someone clears the cache or deletes the history. Since it's not easily deleted it's one of the ways I keep tabs on my kids surfing habbits! :)
