Description

[Kevin "Hypoxia" Harris]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; U; PPC Mac OS X Mach-O; en-US; rv:1.5a) Gecko/20030728 Mozilla Firebird/0.6.1
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; U; PPC Mac OS X Mach-O; en-US; rv:1.5a) Gecko/20030728 Mozilla Firebird/0.6.1

When closing an open browser window and choosing File->New->Navigator Window,
clicking the Home button takes you to the Mozilla home page rather than the home
page specified in the preferences. Opening a browser window on top of that using
File->New Window behaves properly.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Launch FB and close initial browser window.
2.Open the preferences and set www.apple.com to be your home page location.
3.close preferences and choose File->New->Navigator Window.
4.click the Home icon.

Actual Results:  
Browser takes me to mozilla.org's page rather than the home page specified in
the preferences.

Expected Results:  
Should have taken me to the web site specified in the preferences.
