Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: open facebook-log on 2.close entire browser window 3.log back on, all sites still logged in. **** you.
i think chrome is eating your **** lunch and it is because of **** like this. i shouted your **** praises but now i can't even defend you anymore.
Not security sensitive. I presume you have the preference set to "Show my windows and tabs from last time" set under General Preferences? That will save any session cookies across sessions which will leave you logged in when you restart the browser. If you don't want to save your session, then you could change the preference to show your home page or a blank page when Firefox starts which should eliminate the session cookies and log you out. If you don't want Firefox to save any information you could always go to the Privacy preferences panel and turn Private Browsing mode on permanently. Please answer if you have the "Show my windows and tabs from last time" set so we can determine if this is a bug or the expected behavior.

not only do i not have that checked but it is not even an option under general settings. also my home page is set to google when i start up mozilla. for now my only options are: show downloads window when downloading blah blah blah close when finished downloading ALSO- privacy tab = clear history when firefox closes. so NOW WHAT????
In the options under the general tab, you don't see a select input in the Startup section above the home page setting that is labeled: "When Firefox starts:" ?
