I have just upgraded to Firefox 3.6.3, running windows XP. I went through the forum to see if someone had the same problem clearing the browsing history. I cleared places.squite and bookmark back up's in the profiles folder and everything I was supposed to clear, my browsing history is still showing. I also installed the plug-in that asks to clear all history when Firefox closes, the history doesn't clear.

Do you have an old Firefox Profile Folder that still has a file history.dat from Firefox 2 ? If you delete places.sqlite then Firefox will rebuild the history from such a leftover file.
