Sorry, next time I'll try to be not so hasty filing bugs. Removing sessionstore.js fixed it. I'll close this tomorrow unless you think there is some real bug in here.

We usually run our default homepage on the first start of new Firefox. No, I don't think there is any bug here.

Comment 3 Riku Seppala 2009-07-02 07:21:43 UTC
Well the problem was that the default homepage was run on EVERY start of new Firefox even when it was set not to. It was like firefox was always automatically restoring session for no reason. But OK to close this.
