whenever I open firefox after closing it down, it always opens with the last page I was on. I have the settings to point to a specific homepage and have it set to always open on the homepage, but it doesn't.

If you do not use "Show my windows and tabs from last time" then make sure that Firefox closes properly to prevent session restore from reopening a possibly crashed session.

Tools > Options > General > Startup: "When Firefox Starts": "Show my home page" "Show a blank page"

I don't use that, and I close it down using the red X in the corner, same as I've always done. As far as it closing properly, I'd hazard to guess it doesn't or whatever cookie is telling it that it didn't isn't getting cleared.

I am having a similar problem, I'm using "Show my home page" on start-up but firefox decides to always open to the last page visited regardless. I also generally close Firefox using the red X or with alt+f4. This problem is especially annoying when the last page 'visited' is an annoying pop-up ad that wasn't been caught by the pop-up blocker.
