passwords and configurations within tabs lost on restart
Previously, FF 3.6 & B4, I saved 6 tabs with specific configurations as my home page. Since loading 4.0 and 4.01 I can still reload the tabs, but the configurations are gone. Most specifically on my TV Guide selections. It's quite a job to reenter and don't want to do it every time.
