Hi, if there is just one (or a couple) websites we visit frequently that we want to never save history for automatically, is there a way to choose to do that? i know you can choose that for all websites, but i want most of my history-- and i don't want to have to remember to open a new private window every time. Thanks so much for your help!

The above is manual only. There may be an add-on you can use, but I have not heard of such.

Go to the Mozilla Add-ons Web Page {web link} (There’s a lot of good stuff here) and search for what you want.

Remove History For One Site Open the History Manager <Control><Shift> H. In the search bar, enter the name of the site. Right click on one of the listings and select Forget About This Site. This should remove all information, including any passwords / settings.
