Package: iceweasel
Version: 3.0.1-1
Severity: normal
The menu "tools->clear private data" doesn't clear everything.
to reproduce:
1. Browse around a bit
2. Clear the URL bar and type something like "www" into it.
Notice that iceweasel suggest various sites you have seen before.
3. Use "tools-clear private data", and clear out everything
4. Optionally restart iceweasel
5. Type "www" into the url bar again. Notice that iceweasel comes up
with the same suggestions as before, still remembering where you have
been. It shouldn't, really.
6. For a workaround, delete the places.sqlite file found somewhere in
the .mozilla subdirectory tree.
7. Observe that iceweasel no longer remembers previous sites.
A rather small bug, but I though you should know.

This works for me with the version in Lenny (3.0.6-1). Please reopen the
bug if it still doesn't work for you.
