Under 'BROWSE TIMELINE', 'WEB HISTORY', I can see a list of TIME
visited followed by the event/website on a selected date.  My question
is, DO I have to visit this event/websites in-order for any
event/websites to be listed in 'WEB HISTORY'??  Also, could an
event/website(e.g. pronography sites) listed in 'WEB HISTORY' be
planted there due to some 'popups or viruses'?  In other words, how
could a website/event be listed on my web history, if I have never
visited that particular website/event?  Is that possible?THANKS

The most likely explanation is that someone else has been using your computer.

It's either someone use your computer on a particular day or some of
the programs on your computer was opening the websites. Such as
Spyware or some sort of sharewares.

Try to get a program called Spybot and Microsoft Defender, and do a
full scan in your system, see what they pick up.
