Whenever I close Firefox, the "Use Custom Settings for History" section under Tools/options is retained but the Location bar choice reverts from a selection of 'nothing' to "History and Bookmarks". I want it to forever be 'nothing'

See http://kb.mozillazine.org/Preferences_not_saved

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).

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

Your above posted system details show outdated plugin(s) with known security and stability risks that you should update.

  • Java Plug-in 1.5.0_11 for Netscape Navigator (DLL Helper)

Update the Java plugin to the latest version.

Update the Adobe Reader plugin to the latest version.
