  Every time I open firefox I reconfigure my preferences (homepage, internet history settings). This only happens when I close all firefox windows and tabs and then reopen firefox. My home page is my igoogle page. When I reopen it firefox it take me to the login page General igoogle. Once I configured to never remember history of the internet then close firefox and reopen the Web history settings go to "use custom settings. I tried everything on https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Preferences%20are%20not%20saved without success. There is no user.js file in my profile folder.

It is frustrating increibly. Help, please!

  If you have Firefox put forever history remember it will not record your password for iGoogle (it's like using the incognito Private Browsing - use Firefox without saving history). So in this case Firefox isn't a bad thing. You want to register not history? In this case, you must either change your settings to remove just the history cache with pages, or simply log into iGoogle each time.

• stretch image in html background working if "never remember history" is selected

  I have a problem that did not exist in previous versions of mozilla. I found the problem after you have installed the latest version and after setting ever "remember history" of firefox

  The problem is related to the CSS code to stretch a background image to fit the screen. The background image does not stretch if "never remember history" is NOT defined. That part of the image is displayed and the rest of the background is black. I noticed first with my website www.missionbayhighalumni.com and subsequently found that the same problem also occurred with this site:
  http://www.htmlite.com/faq022.php or http://www.htmlite.com/faqEX004b.html

  I created several test cases with very simple code, all had the problem. The background image extend tests of code all work for other browsers and even firefox if "never remember history" is not selected. It also seems to be intermittent.

  Looking very good for me and all containers have a height: 100%, which is also OK.

  You can delete all data stored in Firefox with a specific area through "Forget this Site" in the context menu of a history entry ("" history > view history "or" view > sidebar > History "") or via the subject: permissions page.

  Using "Forget this Site" will delete all data stored in Firefox in this area as bookmarks, cookies, words of past, cache, history, and exceptions, so be careful and if you have a password or other data from that domain you don't want to lose then check that back up these data or make a comment.

  You can't recover from this "forget" unless you have a backup of the files involved.

  It has no lasting effect, so if come back you on such a 'forgotten' site, then the data of this Web site will be saved once more.

  Start Firefox in Safe Mode to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/tools > Modules > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is the cause of the problem.

I closed Firefox and opened it again and my homepage was google.com, as I put it, but it was back to "never remember history". I tried several times, yesterday and today, but Firefox keeps affecting himself never "remember history".

  Firefox displays the "use the custom settings for history" as an indication that at least one story and cookie settings is not the default to make you aware that the changes have been made.
  
  If all the history settings are default, custom settings are hidden and see you "conservation rules: (never) don't forget history."
