I have shut down FF after setting privacy to "Never Remember History" When I start back up it has changed back to "Remember History" . Never had this problem before. I recently updated to 3.6.12 is there a problem with this ugrade?

This can be a problem with saving prefs.
See http://kb.mozillazine.org/Preferences_not_saved

You may also have an extension that changes that setting.

Start Firefox in Diagnose Firefox issues using Troubleshoot Mode to check if one of your add-ons is causing your problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Add-ons > Themes).

  • Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.

See Troubleshoot extensions, themes and hardware acceleration issues to solve common Firefox problems and Troubleshoot issues with plugins like Flash or Java to fix common Firefox problems
