Since updating the latest version of Firefox 3.6, I can no longer type in a keyword or beginning of a url and get prompted for suggested urls in the location bar. I have chose in preferences to remember my history and offer suggestions in the tool bar but it doesn't work. Nothing comes up.

This can be a problem with the file places.sqlite that stores the bookmarks and the history.
