I have set my settings in Tools - Options - Privacy - Never remember history - about a thousand times now, but it never STAYS set to that. It keeps reverting back to Use custom settings for history instead, which is annoying in the extreme and is ultimately a security risk.

This has only happened since I upgraded to Firefox 4.0.1 - it was set on Never remember history in the previous version and remained on that beautifully. How do I get this newer version to retain what I set it at please???? It's driving me mental!!!!

Only if all settings are the default then you will see "Firefox will: (Never) Remember History".
The "Use custom settings for history" choice reverts to "(Never) Remember history" if all History and Cookies settings are the default.
If you see "Use custom settings for history" then at least one of the History / Cookie settings is not the default.

If you select "Never Remember history" then you enter Private Browsing mode and "Permanent Private Browsing mode" will be selected.
