You can check the on_demand prefs on the about:config page.

You can open the about:config page via the location/address bar. You can accept the warning and click "I accept the risk!" to continue.

after firefox starts I see www.yahoo.com in the second tab. I do not see the Yahoo logo icon next to the URL. After I go to the second tab and click on the tab, then the page appears and also the yahoo icon.

I removed all by firefox cache. Then when I started firefox again the second tab did not work. I then closed firefox abd started it again. Then the second tab worked. Could it have something to do with the cache?
