I have the open links from other applications option set to new tab in most
recent window in both FireFox 1.0.4 and Deer Park. However after I open
DeerPark, when I go back to FireFox that option is set to the most recent
tab/window. 

I havent tested it with the other options. But this happens every time that I
load up DeerPark, then switch back to FF. But in Deer park the option remains as
new tab in most recent window.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Have the open link option from other application set to new tab in most recent
window.
2.Close FireFox
3.Open DeerPark and close it
4.Reopen FireFox


Actual Results:  
The option has changed from changed from new tab in most recent window to most
recent tab/window in FireFox.

Expected Results:  
The option should have remained at new tab in most recent window.

I know that deer park is just a code name for the new versions beta, but its
weird how I cant open both FireFox and DeerPark at the same time.

After one of the programs is opened and I click on the link to the other program
it just opens a new window of the application that is already started.

I guess this bug has something to do with the shared resources between the two
applications.
