It keeps remembering history, download history, search & form history when its uncheck, cookies accepted until firefox closes and I have it set on clear history when firefox closes, but its not working even if I use the private browsing mode how do I fix this? (Keep in mind i uninstall to a newer versions but still dont work) I close firefox Im still logged-in in many websites it doesnt clear anything...

If you leave tabs open when you close Firefox then that data is stored as part of the session data in sessionstore.js in the profile folder.

Do you still see old history after you clear the history?

If Clear Recent History isn't working on closing Firefox then make sure that Firefox closes properly.
Use "Firefox/File > Exit" (Mac: "Firefox > Quit"; Linux: "File > Quit") to close Firefox if you are currently doing that by clicking the close X on the title bar.
