Why does my Firefox open with the last tab used in previous session rather than with the designated home page?

I have a web URL listed in the options, and the command to "when Firefox opens: Show home page" is selected.

The homepage designated is "Foxnews.com"

But, every time FF opens, it comes up with the last page that was on when the previous session is ended.

That can happen if Firefox didn't close properly.
You can check that in the Task Manager (Ctrl + Alt + Del).

See "Hang at exit":

This can also be a problem with the file sessionstore.js and sessionstore.bak in the Profile Folder

Delete the files sessionstore.js and sessionstore.bak and any existing files sessionstore-##.js with a number in the left part of the name like sessionstore-1.js to prevent Firefox from restoring a previous session.
