I have Firefox Version 5.0 (2) on my iPad. I want to delete all references to a particular website. I go into Firefox, close all the open windows but one, and then go to google.com to get to a common website. Then I "click" on the small number in the upper right of the screen which minimizes the open window. Then on the bar at the bottom I click on the 3 horizontal bars, then click on the gear symbol to open "Settings", and in "Settings" I click on "Clear Private Data". When I open that, all 4 choices are turned on (I see orange), and then I click on "Clear Private Data", end then "OK". So all references to the website should be gone - right? But they are not, for when I go back into Firefox and open a new tab, go the horizontal bar at the top, then click on the little star in between the 4 little squares on the left and the little clock to the right, the website I want deleted still appears. (is that a Bookmark?) How do I get rid of that website reference?

Hello! Any websites that appear under the "Star" tab are your Bookmarks. To delete it, you can swipe from right to left on the websites name under the Star (Bookmark) tab. Hope this helps!
