Do you have Firefox set to clear history on quit?

Does it still happen in Firefox 3.5?

 NestorAcevedo, still see this with v3.6?
your summary indicates doesn't save session - do you know if that's true by examining sessionstore.js?

Resolving WORKSFORME.  I cannot reproduce this with the latest nightly build.  Nestor, please reopen if you can reproduce this using the latest nightly build found here -> ftp://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/firefox/nightly/latest-trunk/

If you can reproduce this bug, please provide more details.  Details like a list of add-ons you have installed and their version numbers.  Also, see if you can reproduce this using a new profile (run "firefox -P" from terminal to create a new profile).
