644965 - On closing the Firefox window and opening a new one (all while the browser keeps running), the previous page loads up.

Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 628043

(Firefox :: General, defect)

Description

[algotechie]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.1; rv:2.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/4.0
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.1; rv:2.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/4.0

When I close the browser window while keeping, say, the download window, still open (so that the browser is still running), if I open a new Window by clicking the browser's shortcut, the opened window tries to load the page that was there in the previously closed window. This was not the case with the previous versions of the browser; also, I've set the browser to start with the home page (and not with the previous page/s).

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Run Firefox and start a download; make the download manager window visible.
2. Note down the page currently open in the browser window (say, "Page A"). Close the browser window. (But keep the download manager window open. That way, the browser is still running.)
3. Click the browser's shortcut to open a new Firefox window.
4. Notice what loads up in the newly opened window.
Actual Results:  
The "Page A" (the one present in the window closed in step 2) starts loading.

Expected Results:  
Home page (or whatever you've set up in the General options, or whatever loads up in a new tab/window) should have loaded.

I'm using the default theme, no persona. I've the extension NewTabUrl 2.2.2 installed, if that matters. There also are other seemingly unrelated extensions installed.
