If Windows UAC is on (default Vista/7 settings), the "Program Files" folder is virtual. It doesn't allow to self-update the app without UAC popup, but many applications like Google Chrome, antiviruses require often self-update (bug fixes, new signatures, new modules, etc). Developers found that UAC popup is very annoying for users and the way to avoid it is to install the software to the other folder. Google installs the software to "C:\Users\<USER>\AppData\Roaming\" and we decided to do the same.
Histroy.xml stores trackers' statistics. It's not a spelling mistake.
P.S. If you install to "C:\Users\<USER>\AppData\Roaming\", does TRK work fine?
