ON the firefox, the setting is set to "Never remember history" . I have a web site which sets the default value on the record per page dropdown list to 100 for every tab. When I change the value to 5 and then logout. clear the caches/cookies . and then reload the page and then login to the website the value is showing as 5? why is it so? since the default value of the dropdown on fress login should be displayed as 100. I am facing this issue in Firefox 20.0.1 and on Internet explorer its working fine, the default value of the drop down is showing up as "100" . Let me know what behavior is expected on firefox on the above mentioned issue. This relates to firefox browser only.

Are you sure the setting is stored in an HTTP cookie (regular browser cookie), and not on the server or in some other kind of local storage (e.g., Flash LSO)?
