When I close FF 3.6.22 I am not given the option to save multiple tabs.

I run FF both at home and at work. I am still running 3.6.2x in both places because I've not been happy with the later versions. At work this morning, FF restarted and updated to 3.6.22. When I went to close FF at the end of the day, with my usual 5 tabs open, I was not given the option to save my tabs. This is one of the main reasons that I uninstalled 4, and have not installed anything else. This is an extremely important feature for me and I would like to know how to recover this ability.

See item #31 Restoring tabs from a lost session (#tabslost) in the following

You can make Firefox 6.0.2 look like Firefox 3.6.*, see numbered items 1-10 in the following topic Fix Firefox 4.0 toolbar user interface, problems (Make Firefox 4.0 thru 8.0, look like 3.6). Whether or not you make changes, you should be aware of what has changed and what you have to do to use changed or missing features.

There is a lot more beyond those first 10 steps listed, if you want to make Firefox more functional.

Sometimes I think people change things just because they can. What's that line from Star Trek? "Engineers just love to change things."  :-(
