Why are my Tabs closing over night? Is there a way to turn this off?

Ever since I updated Mozilla, any of the webpages in various tabs I have open will close during the night. Mozilla resets it self around 3am. It even woke me up one night. How do I turn this off?? I am having to save tons of webpages every night before bed and have lost valuable information due to this problem. I have changed my update settings in Mozilla on my computer, but the tabs are still being reset/closed over night.

I am not sure what is happening. Firefox should stay open until you close it, and normally gives options to reopen with the previous tabs.

Have you got some sort of cleanup utility that runs automatically, or is it just Windows shutting down, or a laptop going into a power saving mode.
