How do I stop the Welcome to Firefox page from coming up every time I open my browser. Love Firefox. But don't need this every time
Every time I start Foxfire mozilla, I get a "foxfire page that opens along with my home page. How do I get it to stop?

Hello,
I believe the default is currently your homepage, and when you restart Firefox, you always go to your homepage. Firefox has long since had session restore automatically, if you enable it.
To do that, please click on the Firefox App Tab,(For Firefox 4 or higher, with AppTab, the orange button at the top left corner of the window), then go to Options, then Options. Then go to the General Tab, and under Startup, in the box beside "When Firefox starts:" set "Show my windows and tabs from last time," by clicking on the white box. If you want to change your homepage(the page that is shown every time you start a new session), change your Homepage(it's under the Startup section as well) to whatever you like. Click Okay.
For Firefox 3 or higher with menus, go to the Tool menu>>Options(Sometimes it may say Preferences). Then go to the General Tab, and under Startup, in the box beside "When Firefox starts:" set "Show my windows and tabs from last time," by clicking on the white box. If you want to change your homepage(the page that is shown every time you start a new session), change your Homepage(it's under the Startup section as well) to whatever you like. Click Okay.
If you have Firefox BonEcho(v2) or lower, please go to the Edit menu>>Preferences. Then go to the General Tab, and under Startup, in the box beside "When Firefox starts:" set "Show my windows and tabs from last time," by clicking on the white box. If you want to change your homepage(the page that is shown every time you start a new session), change your Homepage(it's under the Startup section as well) to whatever you like. Click Okay.
