Hmm... It seems that HISTFILE is set to ~/.bash_history, as by default.
And you are saying that all users can see each other's history? Can you please double check on this?
I mean, since root's history file is /root/.bash_history, no other user has read permissions for that.

Can you please log in as a non-root user and post the output of
Code:
echo $HISTFILE

for this user.
