Each time i restart my browser after upgrade of add-on etc the browser spawns into as many copies as the number of tabs i had opened just before restart. For example, if i have two tabs opened before restart, say google.in and yahoo.in then when i restart it will have two firefox running with first one highlighting google.in and the other one highlighting yahoo.in.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Have 3-4 tabs opened in a browser
2.Go for a browser restart using add-on or by adding some add-on and using the restart button
3.after restart you will have 3-4 windows each having the 3-4 tabs which was there initially
Actual Results:  
Only one browser should open with all the tabs i had before restart of browser.

Please try again with all extensions disabled or in Safe Mode (http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Safe Mode). Looks like an extension is causing this behavior.
