I have set to clear my browsing history when I exit firefox. And firefox does it but not completely! When I re-open firefox, my History panel is clear; BUT when I start to type an URL which I visited in the past (and its not in my bookmarks) firefox shows me the complete URL before I type it completely. It means history URLs are still saved somewhere! I have disabled all my firefox extentions and still had this problem.

I have experienced this problem in last two versions of firefox (20 and 21)

Hi,

Look please in the Firefox Options -> Privacy -> The History ... (Settings), if there everything is configured correctly.

Try yourself. Turn on private browsing and activate delete histoy on exit. Visit a URL which is not in your bookmarks. Exit firefox and re-open it. Type half of that URL and firefox will show the rest!
