I've read through multiple topics relating to my issue, and I'm sure at least one of you will suggest that I go read [x] topic first. Admittedly, the issue does seem familiar to some parts of each topic, but I have not seen any that covers my issue exactly. If I'm wrong, I'll entertain suggestions.
After using FF and NS for a few years now, I have had multiple opportunities to re-add all of my whitelisted sites. Probably not as often as some of you, but still. I have noticed that for me, the whitelist is only reset when FF and NS are updated on the same day. This is probably not a common coincidence.
I do use sync. The white list is never re-added after the days when simultaneous updates occur, if it is even synced in the first place. Perhaps the sync works and I never know because under normal circumstances, the sync re-adds the whitelist under cloak of darkness. Disabling sync and re-enabling tells me nothing.
I am able to add new sites to the whitelist after updates, it is only that the comprehensive list I had is gone, reset to default sites. Creating a new profile tells me nothing.
Automatic updates for the NS extension are on, updates for this alone do not seem to break the list. Automatic updates for FF are on, FF updates do not seem to break the list. Windows updates do not seem to break the list. I have never noticed this problem on Linux, but the list on that box is very short anyway.
