Want history of all sites visited

In most browsers you can simply use CTRL + H (for history) to access your browsers history (since it was last cleared). If you use multiple browsers you will need to check all browsers.
If you want to consolidate the history for all browsers the solution is not so easy. All browsers use a different internal format. You can try this free program called Web Historian to produce an Excel spreadsheet from all of your browsing history:

Stopping browsing history

Step 1:
Stop Web History on Internet Explorer b> Every time you visit a website, the web address, date and time of your visit is recorded in your Web browser history. The length of time this information is saved varies depending on what browser is used. If privacy is a concern, popular browsers such as Firefox and Internet Explorer offer enhanced privacy features that allow you to prevent your browser history from being stored.

Update your Web browser to the latest version of the product. Browser updates often include important security patches. Automatically clear your browser history each time you exit. In Firefox, this option is located under "Tools" and "Options." Select the "Privacy" tab and check the box marked "Always clear my private data when I close Firefox." If you're using Internet Explorer, click on "Tools" and "Internet Options" and check "Delete browsing history on exit." Use private browsing if your browser supports it. Private browsing prevents your browser from storing any information about your browsing history, including cookies, temporary Internet files and history. Pressing CTRL+Shift+P on your keyboard will activate private browsing mode in both Firefox and Internet Explorer. It can also be accessed in Firefox by clicking "Tools" and selecting "Start Private Browsing," and in Internet Explorer by clicking "Safety" and selecting "InPrivate Browsing." Private browsing must be activated each time you open your browser.

I want to show search history on you tube

You can find the viewing history of the videos on youtube through this link: http://www.youtube.com/my_history
Youtube does not save the search history specifically, however your browser does. Here is a link on how to find and use your browser history:
internet explorer
mozilla firefox
google chrome

If you have another browser than these main three, a simple google search will help you find how to see your history.
