CCleaner not cleaning history files

I am running XP HE. CCleaner is not deleting the history files. I am not sure what else it is not doing.

I have to manually delete the history in IE and then reboot my PC to make the manual deletion "stick".

If I manually delete the history, close IE, open it back up....the history folder is still in tack.

Delete and rebooting is the only way to clean the history file.....CCleaner will work sometimes but 80% of the time it does not.

CCleaner version in 1.39.502 The undate to 1.4 was a disaster as well.
