Before updating to Firefox 13, the "Last Tab Close" add-on did what I wanted it to do: It did not shut down Firefox if I closed the Last Tab. It did not bring me to a page with a bunch of previously used windows. I do not want that Last Tab Restore feature. I just want it to work like that add-on has been working for years. Any help?

hello, firefox 13 has introduced a new "new tab" page & the addon you're using is likely opening that to prevent a shutdown of the browser. please refer to the following articla in order to switch off the new tab page in firefox: Customize your Firefox New Tab page

Set the browser.tabs.closeWindowWithLastTab pref to false on the about:config page to prevent closing the last tab from closing that window and make a close button appear if only one tab is open.
