I set the Link Colours, (so I can easily see what URL's I have visited after Google search" but it doesn't respond.
After a google (etc) search, instead of the colours I set (in tools\options\content\colours) do not show. If I set a visited website to show yellow (e.g.), it just shows the regular blue (no different from the "unvisited" sites. There was a time when, regardless of my settings, the visited sites would show a slightly different colour blue - not so now. I have Windows XP Pro SP2

- Make sure that you do not use Delete browsing, search and download history on Firefox to clear the Browsing History.
- Make sure that the History is set to at least 1 day: Tools > Options > Privacy > History: "Remember visited pages for at least"
- Make sure that you do not start Firefox in Private Browsing mode (Tools > Stop Private Browsing is grayed, see Private Browsing - Use Firefox without saving history)
- To see History and Cookie settings in Tools > Options > Privacy, choose the setting "Firefox will: Use custom settings for history"
You can look at these prefs on the about:config page.
