Make sure that you do not use Delete browsing, search and download history on Firefox to clear the Browsing History. ..... You can look at these prefs on the about:config page. http://kb.mozillazine.org/browser.history_expire_days (180) (also affects saved form data) http://kb.mozillazine.org/browser.history_expire_days_min (90)

Hi, Cor-el

I have set the options to remember 30 days browsing history, and to clear only download history, active logins and cache. These settings have not changed in several years, but the browsing history now stores only today's results. I can find no reason for this.
