[Bug 214588] [NEW] "Show home page" on startup does not work

[Thomas Boutell]

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: firefox-3.0

I have set my home page to a set of open tabs. It works if I click
"home," but even though I have set Firefox to display the home page on
startup (and that setting persists), I get nothing but a blank page on
startup.

Also, the "spinner" continues to spin forever in most tabs once they
finally do load.

The home page is set to (you wouldn't have the passwords for this stuff,
but it'll give you an idea if you use any of these sites):
