(Firefox :: Tabbed Browser, defect)

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; nl; rv:1.9) Gecko/2008052906 Firefox/3.0
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; nl; rv:1.9) Gecko/2008052906 Firefox/3.0

When I have a few tabs opened and I close Firefox, I choose to save the tabs so I get them when I open Firefox again. Yet when I open Firefox again the tabs don't show up at all, and the starting page won't load either, all I see is just a white screen with no URL in the address bar.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open a few websites in different tabs
2. Close Firefox, and choose to save the tabs
3. Open Firefox again and see that the tabs aren't being opened
Actual Results:  
The tabs didn't open, all I got was a white screen

Expected Results:  
Give me all the tabs again, when I closed Firefox

PC: Intel Pentium 4, Windows XP Professional, Firefox 3 (Dutch)

Did you use early Firefox 3 nightly builds or betas?

Can you reproduce the problem in a fresh profile?

No, it was Firefox 3 Final, however creating a fresh profile solved the problem
