Firefox had been working fine until I installed a few add ons, then it stopped remembering the websites I visited and it forgot all the ones I had, except the few bookmarked ones. As in when I typed a website I had been to in the search bar, no drop down menu appeared. However it remembered usernames and passwords.

It did however remember stuff once I typed it in, but only until I closed firefox. Upon opening it again it acted like I had never searched them.

So I just thought it was a case of uninstalling the add ons, I did and still the same story. So I uninstalled firefox with all its passwords, cookies, etc. and reinstalled and I still have the same story.

Internet explorer is working fine, but I much prefer Firefox.

Please, please tell me how to fix this because its really, really annoying.
