The most recent web pages viewed by the user go onto the "History" menu. All of a sudden they didn't move down the list as I viewed more we pages. This carried on for several days, as the pages I viewed days ago was still stuck in the "History" menu; even after deleting the day the pages were viewed in the history "sidebar".

Only after I cleared everything in "Clear private data" function, that everything became ok.

This is the first this sort of thing has happened.  

Reproducible: Couldn't Reproduce




I'm using the iFox smooth theme.

Probably the history.dat file was corrupted. To prevent the possibility of data loss you could make a regular copy.
