Hi, if there is just one (or a couple) websites we visit frequently that we want to never save history for automatically, is there a way to choose to do that? i know you can choose that for all websites, but i want most of my history-- and i don't want to have to remember to open a new private window every time. Thanks so much for your help!

The above is manual only. There may be an add-on you can use, but I have not heard of such.

Go to the Mozilla Add-ons Web Page {web link} (There’s a lot of good stuff here) and search for what you want.

Remove History For One Site Open the History Manager <Control><Shift> H. In the search bar, enter the name of the site. Right click on one of the listings and select Forget About This Site. This should remove all information, including any passwords / settings.

thanks so much for your reply FredMcD! This is great to know; yet i still hope you might tell me how i can also set things to automatically forget the site, even with all new future visits. Thanks!

You can use an extension to get Private Browsing mode support per tab.

Private Browsing mode tabs get a dashed underline You can toggle Private Browsing mode on/off via the right-click context menu of a tab
