As you've probably noticed, FireFox 1.0.6 does not have the ability to automatically erase a user's internet history upon the ending of a session, only cookies. That leads me to ask if you have any privacy software installed/running. Programs such as Webroot's Window Washer, as well as most internet security suites, include the ability to automatically erase a user's histroy once a session is ended. Programs set to automatically erase obsolete and junk files may also be to blame. Check for such programs/features and let us know what you find.
Hope this helps,

I use Firefox ver 1.0.6 on Win XP Pro SP2.
At the address bar, I am not able to get the drop down list of previously entered URL of visited sites. They are present in the same session, but if I close Firefox and then relaunch it for a second session, there is no drop down list. Only the default home page URL is shown. How do I go about maintaining the list ? I cannot find any configuration location at the Menu bar except the likely Tools>Options, but that is not it. I have been a long time IE user. Thanks.
