Default Killling "recent session interrupted" at startup in FF 2.0


Everytime I start my pc, I get this dialogue telling me the last session of
FF was closed unexpectedly (or works to that effect) and do I want a new
session or to go to the page that was active when the previous session
closed. Any way to kill this? Looked in settings, if it's there I missed
it.

TIA

Dan

Could be wrong but that sounds like the action of an extension. Which
ones do you have installed?

Thanks for the reply. In terms of extensions, nothing I haven't run before:
Ad block plus 0.7.0.1, Answers 2.1.15, BugMeNot 1.3, IE View Lite 1.2, Image
Zoom 0.2.7 & Mouse gestures 1.5.2. Also had something called "Dom Inspector
which I could have sworn I told it not to install. Killed that, rebooted,
still the sessions thing. It says (and I quote) "Your last Firefox session
closed unexpectedly. You can restore the tabs and windows from your
previous session, or start a new session if you think the problem is related
to a page you were viewing". The "unexpected problem" is just shutting the
pc down. This is a pain, it won't open FF till I click. Never had this
1.5.whateveritwas. How to kill?!?

Thanks

Dan

Set "browser.sessionstore.enabled" to "false" in about:config.

Thanks Mumia, looks like just what the doctor ordered. I added the key,
we'll see what happens when I restart again.

Finally got rid of this bloddy thing. Had to add or set the following
strings:

browser.startup.page to 1
browser.sessionstore.enabled to TRUE
browser.sessionstore.resume_session to FALSE

Tried just setting browser.sessionstore.enabled to FALSE, didn't work.

So far, so good

Thanks for the input

Dan
