Make sure that the Location Bar is not set to "Nothing":

  • Tools > Options > Privacy > Location Bar: When using the location bar, suggest: History, Bookmarks, History and Bookmarks

See Smart Location Bar

Btw, it doesn't work if you increase the 'At least' history setting (history_expire_days_min) to 365 and leave the actual history setting (history_expire_days) at the default of 180. 

browser.history_expire_days.mirror 180
browser.history_expire_days_min 365

I had the same problem with ubuntu 10.10 and firefox 3.6.13. I disabled my last 2 add-ons and it fixed the problem. One was "pixlr grabber 2.1.1 add-on"; which I think this was the one causing the problem, I also disabled "ubuntu firefox modifications 0.9rc2 add-on". Why firefox doesn't weed these thing out is beyond me.

On Linux use Edit > Preferences instead of Firefox (Tools) > Options

Menu differences: Windows: Tools > Options - Mac: Firefox > Preferences - Linux: Edit > Preferences
