For some reason, Firefox is not saving ANY of my history. The back button is working, but I cannot open recently closed tabs, save tabs for previous visits or even view past history - it's just not there. Why won't my computer save history?
I can navigate backward and forward within one tab, or within one browser session, but as soon as the tab or session closes it's like all record of it is wiped from my computer. I'm not sure if the problem is my computer or firefox, but there doesn't seem to be anything like this mentioned out there and I would really appreciate some help.

A possible cause is a problem with the file places.sqlite that stores the bookmarks and the history.

Your useragent says your are running Firefox 3.6.13 -> is that true.
If not, do the following and post back your new Firefox version:
- Type about:config in the URL bar and hit Enter
- If you see the warning, you can confirm that you want to access that page.
- Filter = general.useragent.
- Right-click the preferences that are bold, one line at a time, and select Reset.
- Then restart Firefox
I'm afraid I do have that version of Firefox. I tried typing what you said into the URL bar anyway, but simply got a "server not found" in response.
If you are running 3.6.13 you need to update to 3.6.26 ASAP - there are many security vulnerabilities in the old version. You can download it from http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all-older.html
