Until someone else replies that uses FF3, and uses FF
regularly......I can tell you now that program just talked
about on the list (IE Privacy Keeper) will get rid of the
History and URL History. (It's FireFox, not Foxfire ;-).
As to why it's remaining, obviously it's staying behind in a
folder that's not getting deleted. I don't have my FF History
saved, so knowing that; FF is in 3 different folders, so check
these for some kind of History:
C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox
C:\Documents and Settings\[user name]\Application
Data\Mozilla\Firefox
C:\Documents and Settings\[user name]\Local
Settings\Application Data\Mozilla\Firefox
Don't just look for the obvious "History", it may be under
"Profiles" as well.

Hello again ... Using Foxfire 3, I find an ongoing problem. The
down arrow to the left of the Address box (where the URL is
found) always shows some addresses that I visited many moons
ago, innocent pages where one would never pick up a virus. This
list of pages keep showing up even if I reinstall Foxfire.
After re-installing, as soon as I open that down arrow list, a
short list of pages that appear on the default Bookmarks
Toolbar show up on that list. But as soon as I import the
bookmarks that I have backed up, this old list again shows up
with the first default list disappearing.
I hope the above explanation of the problem makes sense. Any
solution to this problem? --- Harold
