How do I stop Addons from opening tabs on first launch?
I am adding extensions to Firefox using CCK2, and on first launch, every extension loads a tab (8+). Second launch, nothing happens which is ideal.
My best guess is that Firefox loads all the extensions when a user profile is created which causes them all to open their "Welcome" page, which is fine on a normal install, but because I am working in a lab environment where user profiles are automatically deleted after logout, that means Firefox loads 9 tabs every time it launched.
How do I suppress these tabs

Is this for security reasons?
Sorry, but there are add-ons that will say 'hello' and others that need to be set up (options).
I do not know if this can be stopped. But think about this;

A fully functional package of Firefox optimized for use on a USB key drive. A specialized launcher will allow most favorite extensions to work as you switch computers.

There are usually first run prefs (install-event-fired) to install and initialize the extension properly that obviously aren't present and set when you install the extension. A lot of extensions include a special welcome page that is also shown when the extension updates. I don't think that you can prevent this in most cases.
