"Non-sticky" visited site color in Win 7
On my Win 7 laptop, FF5 does not retain the "visited site link color" after viewing the site (e.g., Craigslist postings); it flashes the "visited" color (I use #770000) when you click on the link but returns to the "unvisited" color (blue). Works normally on my Win XP desktop. No significant differences in the about:configs. How do I get a sticky "visited" color in Win 7?

Thanks. It was the Tools > Options > Privacy > History: Remember my browsing history that was reset. Works fine now.
