I thought Sea Monkey had followed Fx on history retention. There is no way to expire History at 30 days, or 60 days, etc anymore. It is great now, like Fx, history kept for as long (many years) as possible with the length of kept history now based mostly on the amount of RAM you have. So, when I get my new computer with 16 or 24GB RAM (haven't decided which) I will never have to worry about my history expiring. > > Anyone who thinks government owns a monopoly on inefficient, obstructive > bureaucracy has obviously never worked for a large corporation. > © 1997 by David E.
