Not storing preferences on google.co.uk homepage.
I goto "Search settings" and change the "Number of results" to anything other than 10, also change "Google instant" setting to "Do not use Google Instant". I Save preferences, close Firefox and reopen it and it reverts back to default settings, it wont store the changes. Just wondered why. Thanks.
