latest firefox configuration issue... question

Hey what's up. I'm trying to configure Firefox to remember the text entered in different forms and / or search bar. I did find the option for it in the settings but the problem is it will only remember text during a single session. After I restart the browser it won't remember anything. I know that my other computer will remember text even after restart. Pls let me know if you have any ideas

Go to tools, options, privacy tab and see if you have the browser set to "Always clear my private data when I close firefox." If you do, click on settings and uncheck "saved form inforamation".

Also, although it's a long shot, be sure that the folder in app. data where this info is stored that write permssion is granted to the user in question.
