Prevent urls from specific domains from being saved in firefox's history

Question

I want to prevent urls of specific domains from being saved or shown in my history. For instance, I don't want any of google's search result pages to be saved in my history since then when I use the awesomebar I get a lot of google's search results, which are of no use to me.

Of course I can keep on deleting them, but I would like a way to specify that any url starting with www.google.com shouldn't be saved.

Answer 1

I still have yet to explore how this can be done manually.
But for now you can use HistoryBlock Addon. I believe it answers your requirements.

Answer 2

Use Private Browsing for those URLs.

What Private Browsing will not retain

• Visited pages: No pages will be added to the list of sites in the History menu, the Library window's History list, or the Smart Location Bar's address list.
• Form and Search Bar entries: Nothing you enter into text boxes on web page forms or the Search bar will be added to the list of entries for Form autocomplete.
• Passwords: no passwords will be automatically filled in during the your Private Browsing session, and no new passwords will be saved.
• Download List entries: No files you download will remain in the list in the Downloads window after you turn off Private Browsing.
• Cookies: Files created by websites, that store information on your computer, such as your preferences when visiting that site (when a website has a "remember this" checkbox, it is using a cookie) will not be stored. For more information on cookies, see Cookies.
• Web cache files: No temporary Internet files or cached files from web pages will be saved until you turn off Private Browsing.

I'm not sure whether you can configure it for specific URLs though.
