Firefox starts up automatically when I turn on my computer, even though it is not on the startup menu nor msconfig, yes I already tried messing around with the "toolkit.winRegisterApplicationRestart" and it didn't help.

What does Firefox show when it starts up?

  • Previous session is restored
  • My home page
  • Some other page
  • A combination of the above

This tool can be a bit of information overload, but it seeks out more startup processes than msconfig:

Is your home page set to a blank page? Otherwise, that's a mystery, too...
