I spent a whole infuriating day fixing this issue but have finally beaten this annoyance. Reinstall Shareaza and then install Revo Uninstaller Pro (Free Software). Use Revo to Uninstall Shareaza and then delete all remaining files Revo identifies as associated files. Then you can restart your computer, open Firefox, and reset your homepage for real.

I had a hard time fixing this. I do NOT have shareaza installed. However, it may have BEEN on my computer and the Discordia Ltd portion (the company that stole the real, original Shareaza) was still installed. Try going to your install/uninstall programs and look for Discordia Ltd. I uninstalled that and now my Firefox homepage works correctly after each start up.
