While browsing FireFox crashed while trying to load an archived website, after scanned for virus and nothing found BUT my last few days history got wiped.
Never had that happen before. Anyone ever have their browsing history messed with (am using FF78.02) ?

Hate posting a reply and then have to edit it because it made no sense 😁 First computer was an IBM 3270 workstation with CGA monitor. Stuff: https://archive.org/details/@horun

Had it happen in Netscape a number of times. Possibly a feature? 😉

Apparently 32-bit is dead and nobody likes P4s.
Of course, as always, I'm open to correction...😉

Firefox stores history, bookmarks, etc in databases. It was probably writing to it when the crash happened and became corrupted.
