Nothing else to add. This comes up every time I reboot computer and start firefox. There use to be a box to uncheck to stop this.

Make sure you don't click Save and Quit before exiting Firefox. Make sure it isn't your homepage/start up page.

Hope this helps! handsomeorlandoman

Firefox is not set up as homepage...first thing I checked. Have not clicked Save and Quit...not sure where that shows up. Sometimes there was a box you have to uncheck, something to the effect "always show this page" but I don't see that. Also on other firefox installs, fire fox would put this page in the home page and you had to change it. That is not the case here...unless it's invisible.

Also this only happens the first time I start firefox for the day.
