I'm not completely clear what you experienced: did 'Reset Camino' fail to clear all of your history, or only part of it ?

Next time it happens, could you check in Console (/Applications/Utilities) if there are any messages logged at the moment you did a 'reset Camino' ?

( I seem to remember a report in the forums where the user noted that 'Reset Camino' didn't clear the 'Recently closed tabs' submenu under History. Is that what you are experiencing ? )

Yes, the "Recently Closed Pages" submenu under History is what failed to clear. I just now tried to reproduce this, but was unsuccessful, the submenu DID clear this time. Thanks

I'm going to dupe this to the other bug on the subject (which also isn't reproducible); if it happens for you again, we should probably reopen bug 529500.

OK I CAN reproduce this. It IS in the "recently closed pages" submenu under "History". Resetting Camino a second time clears this.

   The first time I tried to reproduce, I did not have any pages I had closed, hence there were no "recently closed pages" to show.

 Thanks
