How do I expand the amount of days saved in the browsing history?

I've always had problems with the amount of time the history saves my browsings. Since I installed Firefox, I've only been able to look back up to "Last week" browsing history, and it's become quite annoying as I don't seem to find a way to increase that amount.

So, I'd be grateful if someone could tell me how to increase the amount saved to at least about two months. I tend to do several-week searches, so I need quite a long history.

There is also cleanup software like CCleaner that can remove Firefox data, so check that if you have such software.

You can look at these prefs on the about:config page.

Okay, that explains it. Both prefs were set to "5" by default, even if the KB says otherwise. Thank you very much.
