My laptop is being shared by others...so when others open the firefox page they can see all the tabs opened in a window or a tabgroup.i want o hide the tabgroup or secure tha tabs in a window by creating a passoword so that the others dont get the chance to view the tabs that i was browsing and so they have to open a new window and thus all the information in my tabs is safe and still are open even if they close their new window after their browsing.

hello, when you're using a shared computer a better option would be to create separate (password-protected) windows accounts for each user - then each one would have her/his own firefox profile...

unfortunately i'm not aware that an addon with such functionality is available (& that's probably because most people with such a usecase will use different accounts).
