Firefox is saving one old month from last year and I can't manually clear it

more options

I have adjusted my settings so that Firefox no longer saves my history. The strange thing is, I am unable to manually clear an old month's history (November 2013...it is now end of Jan 2014). In other words, when I click on it and try to clear...it remains there. I have tried reinstalling Firefox and it keeps preserving that month's history. When I click "history", there is nothing new there (as per my new settings) except for Nov 2013. Can I get rid of it?? Thanks
