History sites not retained beyond present date, no matter what number of days is selected under options Sorry I forot to include this information with previous e-mail. This compalin has been designed as Bug 327816, but it may have been tagged before as Bug 202051

Reproducible: Always




Tech talk is a foreign language to me--all I know is that none of the previous day's sites are retained in my History Profile. I use a PC, Windows XP 2002 Service Pack 2 have not had this problem with previous browsers, Netscape and Explorer. Can you help?

Sites visited are not kept in History. Default is supposed to be 9 days. 
Only sites visited on the present day are listed.

Can you please go to tools - options - privacy then click the settings button at the bottom right. Please check that you havent chosen to clear the history everytime you close firefox.
