Since upgrading yesterday, Firefox ALWAYS opens on Monitor 1 instead of Monitor 2. I have DELETED all add-ons and plug-ins. I have minimized, maximized, moved from Monitor 1 to Monitor 2 without maximizing or minimizing, and Firefox ALWAYS opens in Monitor 2. I'm running Mac OSX Lion. There were no issues until the Firefox upgrade yesterday. GRRRRR!

unfortunately this is a regression in firefox 12 on mac os x that has been reported here in the forums quite few times. there are already some bugs filed for the issue & hopefully it will be resolved in one of the upcoming releases (although judging from the bugs' stati there isn't much progress yet).
