Version 3.5.10 Zoom stayed active as long as browser was open, any tabs opened had to be adjusted. Version 3.6.6 every website change of changes within a website required Zoom as it would not remain stable in each link. I use a 50" hdtv as a monitor and this get old real fast. I've returned to 3.5.10. Please let me know when this is repaired.

Every time Firefox opened
