Firefox is losing history. I can't go back a page

Once in a while, I click a link and notice that my back button has grayed out. I cannot go back a page. However, if I restart the browser and go to that same link, I can go back with no problem. Any idea what's going on?

Blah, must be a current glitch in the browser, glad to know it's not just me. I was afraid I had a BHO virus hiding out.
