I have my Google homepage open (google ig) and i use google talk client. I am not signed into the chat part of google ig but when using the google talk client the chat window is opened like i am signed in. This never happened on previous versions of firefox, only when i upgraded to 4. It is like i am actually signed in and firefox wont sign me out although it says i am.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open a google ig (google homepage) page
2. Start a chat using google talk client
Actual Results:  
You will see the google chat window open in firefox with your chat history

Expected Results:  
The chat window should not open as im not signed into the chat part

Could you see if the issue occurs if using Firefox in safe mode:

How about with a new, empty testing profile? (Don't install any addons into it)
