Steps to reproduce:

I've written about this before, two years and eight months ago, see: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/821193 No response.

Firefox history is being placed into the wrong date bucket. I had approximately 6 months worth of dates in history. Sometimes today's info would go into a month 6 months' ago. Sometimes today's info will go into yesterday's date bucket.

I deleted places.sqlite and allowed the system to recreate it. The problem is still happening.

I ran the CheckPlaces and the Places Maintenance.

I've had three different computers since this started.  This has been going on for more than two and a half years.

Problem started with Firefox version is 9.0.1 on a Windows XP (32-bit computer).  I'm now using Firefox version 32.0.2 on top of Windows 7 (64-bit).

Software has been reinstalled many-many times.  Have worked in safe mode with the same results.

I used to keep six months' history.  I now keep just three months' history.  


Actual results:

Every single day ... several times a day ... history shows in wrong date bucket ... sometimes one, sometimes two entries.

When I check the actual file that contains the history, there is no problem with the information.

I have been deleting the incorrect entries several times a day.

Some entries are showing a "Visit Date" on both days (correct day and incorrect day.  When I delete one entry, both entries disappear.  When I check the actual file, there are no duplicate entries.


Expected results:

History should appear in ONE date bucket indicating the last time the information was accessed.
