Firefox supports multiple home tabs.

  • go to options > home
  • Click the menu next to Homepage and new windows and choose an option to show either the Firefox Home page, enter your own URLs or show a blank page.

enter about:config into the firefox address bar (confirm the info message in case it shows up) & search for the preference named browser.tabs.closeWindowWithLastTab. double-click it and change its value to false.

Its as if the firefox software opens a service instance of firfox in the background and instantly hides the browser access to it and then opens the public/user access window...
