For the last few days I haven't been able to clear history for the day.

I tell firefox to Clear for Today. I tell it to clear now but after a while nothing is happening. When I check with the task manager my Firefox windows have stopping responding. When I try to close any of the windows I get a crash report.

troubleshoot (move) the places.sqlite file... (in the process, this will delete history)
