regular and private windows interfering?

Hey! so my browser is set up to start up with the last pages open. I had this weird setup last night, where I had a private browsing window open, with several open tabs, and a regular firefox window also with several open tabs. I had to leave, so I quit the regular tab, while leaving the private one open, but minimezed to the tray. Then, when I returned and opend up a regular window, it just started with an empty window instead of my last open ones. I repeated this several times with the same outcome. After this I tried closing the private window and then opening up the regular window, and in this case it worked like a charm. So I guess that's a bug or something.

On a separate matter: why can't firefox remember to put the youtube videos up in the expanded mode when I once selected it? I think Chrome did that by default.

Thanks for the help, and cheers! -János
