My firefox is definitely remembering history. But sometimes after a few restarts of firefox or maybe my PC. I have to start from scratch. By deleting the two lines in hosts and then waiting for the first 3 ads and pausing and reinserting them. Quite irritating. Adblock plus has never worked for block ads for me. Any ideas anyone?
