Every time I try to clear 1 hour of recent history Firefox 24 locks up. Firefox not responding message. I have to go into Task Manager and end process. Then when Firefox restarts it works fine. Please do not suggest Update. I did that and the current version is HORRIBLE. Not at all user friendly IMHO. I did a system restore to get 24 back. Thanx

Am I the only one? :)

Did you try to isolate which item is causing this problem by only placing one check mark at the time on an item to clear?
