Firefox 4 forgets my settings (not saving history, asking where to download, starting page etc) every time I reboot laptop.

Also all add-on pages appear every time I log in to Windows and start Firefox, for example the black colorzilla page that starts with the text This page will only be shown once. Not funny at all.

Every three or four days, my first launch of Firefox 4 checks for compatibility of add-ons (like usually happens after the first install of a new version), and when I visit websites where I have previously entered my preferences (UPS, for example, to tell them that I'm in the U.S.), it forgets the data that I've saved.

FYI, I'm on Windows XP.
