When I choose a tab in my closed tbs list, FF opens several tabs in addition to the one I selected.

Many times it also opens a blank "new tab" as well.

Also, reopened tabs do not automatically load. I have to manually tell each page to reload for them to bring up the webpage.

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

Delete sessionstore.js and sessionstore.bak in the Profile Folder If you see files sessionstore-##.js with a number in the left part of the name like sessionstore-1.js then delete those as well.

See:

Firefox 4 has a pref browser.sessionstore.max_concurrent_tabs to limit the number of pages that open at the same time.
