With firefox 4.0 or 6.0 i did not have this problem. I have a certain order of wich i visit these sites and now the list is scrambled. Most inconvinient feature. It was the same with 7.0 and that´s why i ran with v.4.0. I hoped, that the new 8.0 would have fixed my problem but it didn´t.

You don't change the results of a reporting mechanism. You can manipulate the reporting or skew results by visiting something more/less often. The "most visited sites" is a report of your most visited sites not about what you want to remember to click on.

If you want a folder for the blogs you want to look at daily, then create a bookmark folder that you can get to easily such as directly on the Bookmarks toolbar named "Blogs" (a short name), and put the bookmarks you are likely to open. If you want to open all of those bookmarks in tabs, right-click on the folder and choose "Open in Tabs", it will only open the files directly in the folder, nothing in sub-folders.

If you want to keep them up for a while you can make them app-tabs once on the tabs bar. Do not rely on app-tabs to never get lost, or deleted keep them permanently in bookmarks.

If you more or less like what you see in "Most visited" perhaps you would like to increase the limit from 10 to 20 within. Never delete anything from a "Smart folder" or you will delete the actual bookmark that resides elsewhere.

My problem is infact that i can´t influence on the list with visiting some page more than the others. Older versions allow me to do so.
