New ctrl-N windows in Firefox 3.6.3 go to home page. How do I get them to start on current page?

Before my upgrade to Firefox 3.6.3, there was an extension (addin) that enabled Ctrl-N new windows, and they began at the current page. The extension is invalid after the upgrade, as it seems that 3.6.3 has Ctrl-N capability, but new pages now, always, begin at the "start" page.

Is 3.6.3's new-page feature configurable to start at the current page? Thank you

This happened

Every time Firefox opened

I use this extension to load the current page in a New Window. Clone Window extension - will also Clone a Tab: http://www.pikey.me.uk/mozilla/?addon=cw

You can also drag the favicon from the location bar or the tab upon the New Window toolbar button. You can find that button in the toolbar palette in the View > Toolbars > Customize window and drag it on a toolbar (Navigation toolbar or menu bar).
