How can I set the number of day that FF remembers a visited site?
Using FF 8, a visited site link turns color to show it has been visited. I would like to have that color go back to normal after 14 days. In other words, I want FF to remember that I visited a site by turning the link a different color for only 14 days. Right now it seems to last forever. The link never changes back to normal, so I can't easily tell when I was last on the site.
I do use sync. I looked through the about:config, but don't seem to be able to find a pref that will do this.

You can do it manually if you like with code in the Error Console.
Copy and paste the code in the Code field in the Error Console and click the Evaluate button.
- Firefox/Tools > Web Development > Error Console (Shift+CtrL+J)

See:
- Expire history by days: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/expire-history-by-days/
I don't understand exactly what this addon does. (and the 4 reviews don't encourage me much) Is there not a setting within FF that allows me to set the expire history days?
