Does this problem affect all sites, or only some? Try going to a Google search results page and click a few links. Then, come back a day later and see if they are still visited.

It may be that the links that get reset are coming from a frameset. Firefox only remembers history from framesets temporarily, which affects sites that use them. (An example would be the craigslist forums)
