Notpron Forums

mkay, I use firefox (yay for me) and till yesterday I was pretty happy with it.

Howeverrrrrrr, I turn on firefox, type in forums..........nothing comes up.
I try forums.gameservers.net........nothing comes up.

Now, apparently, the option remember visited pages for the last XX days doesn't mean it kills every URL you haven't used for XX days in a row, but instead just kills EVERYTHING once every XX days.

That option alone makes me want to go back to IE, because I don't like it if I need something remotely important and my entire history gets whiped.

So, the question: Any way to turn that off/change it/whatever.

Oh, and don't tell me to set it to 9999 days or whatever, cause that makes on chaotic and BIG ass history folder.

Hm... I set mine to 0 (so it stores no history) and it works fine? Unless you on about something else...

Well, I WANT a history, just don't want it to disapear every 20 days. (including quick-filling in the URL bar).

So when *do* you want it to disapear?

Like IE, the links are gone if they aren't frequently used.

my take on this is that, if you visit a page every XX days, you might as well have a link in your bookmark toolbar instead of typing it in every time.

if you *really* don't like this feature, go to http://bugzilla.mozilla.org/ and submit it as a History bug. User feedback is key to the mozilla projects, so go and tell them how to improve it

I'm just used to it, I only use my bookmarks for *important* pages (pron )
Wouldn't want my dad going through that now would I

i put my history to 30 days. (as opposed to 7)

ive never had frequently visited sites automatically disappear on me from the url bar.

same as pri here

also, attn all firefox users, there's a security hole in versions 0.9x and earlier. A buffer overflow exploit related to the bitmap parser.

It's fixed in the 1.0 preview release, so head over to http://www.mozilla.org and get it now

fenk yew

thunderbird pre0.8 versions too. (more important imo)
