After closing a Firefox window, the next time I open Firefox it returns to the last website I was using. Previously Firefox had loaded to my home page every time a new browsing session was opened.

This began 2 days ago without me updating or changing any settings in Firefox. I have gone to the options menu several times and reset my homepage to the iGoogle that I set up. Also made sure to click to option to open a new session by going to my homepage. Firefox still opens by returning to the last website I was using before I hit the 'X" button in the top right corner.
