When I use a shortcut (to open a web page at Yahoo.com) with the application Launchbar, if Firefox was not already launched, it launches, opens a blank window, then opens another window with the requested web page.

This problem is already listed in the list ofproblems, and it is stated that this has been corrected. IT HAS NOT.

As a matter of fact, this is new behaviour since 3.6.x

Thanks.

This happened

Every time Firefox opened

== after update to 3.6.8

That is a bug: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=531552 - Firefox 3.6b opens two windows when opening external links
