Can I exclude my homepage from Firefox Sync?

more options

Sync works fine for me, but the homepage I like to use (Fark) is blocked at my office.

I presume I can disable synchronization of the homepage (uncheck Options?). Can I and, if so, how do I disable homepage syncing with the minimum effect on other items to sync?

Perfect!

Thanks for the instant, clear instructions. I'm back to Fark at home and am now opening Firefox to the apparently-less-offensive BBC homepage at the office.
