Does changing the default value of a preference in firefox.js gets affected for all the users. I tried changing the default balue of "browser.startup.homepage" to "yahoo.com" in firefox.js but yahoo.com is not getting set as the home page. Any reasons why as I am missing something here. Any help to resolve this is greatly appreciated. I have been trying to acheive this programatically.

Set the pref via mozilla.cfg if you want to force it to all users. See http://kb.mozillazine.org/Locking_preferences

defaultPref(); // set new default value pref(); // set pref, but allow changes lockPref(); // lock pref, disallow changes
