My question says it all. The history library shows "Today", "Last 7 days", and "This month". Setting in options window are to save browsing history for 90 days. Where is the rest of the browsing history?

The default in Firefox 3 versions is to keep history for 180 days (6 months).
In Firefox 4+ that has changed to a maximum number of pages that is kept.

You can look at these prefs on the about:config page to see for how long that you keep history in Firefox 3 versions.
