Are you deleting them in the Folders pane or viewing
pane. I have found that if you delete history items in
the viewing pane, they will still show in the folders
pane even though they don't exist. If you close and
re-open Windows Explorer, they should be gone.

The best way to delete history is in Internet Explorer>
Tools>Internet options.
