Why do my old tabs keep appearing, and my new page of tabs not appearing?
Every since I downloaded 4.0 version, my tabs from some previous session appear when I start Firefox. I keep closing them, but firefox keeps reeopening them when I restart. My other new windows do not reappear for me. I set the option to open my tabs from my last session. Just now, I had told it to simply open a blank page, but no, the same old page with the same tabs appears. I am really really annoyed at this point, since I keep research and job information tabs open on one or two more pages that I keep in the tray below. They never reappear, however. I even tried going back to my previous version of Firefox, and it does the same thing. Help! (oh, and get this. When my wordpress page opens, it always opens to Feb 2 2011!)

I am not sure I understand what you are asking.
If you set a firefox to have a blank page as a homepage then if you open a homepage it should be a blank page.
If you set firefox to open with your previous session tabs, that is what it should do. If after it has opened you click on the homepage icon, it should then open the homepage or pages, in your case now a blank page.
Have you tried bookmarking your important pages ?
I've been using firefox for a long time and know those things. The options are not working, as I keep getting the same window with the tabs I had from a number of days ago. It's very very strange. All my new work, all my new tabs that it's supposed to be saving, do not show up when I reopen firefox in the morning. As I said, I even changed the options to open with a blank page upon starting, and it still brings up that one particular group of tabs. It opens an old window from wordpress, as I've already mentioned, and it also opens an old page at my examiner page where I write (I keep both of those sites as tabbed windows all of the time). I'm going to have to quit using firefox if I can't find a solution to this, though I don't want to. I really really like the no ads aspect of firefox.

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.

I think I have a similar problem. I posted my problem more than a week ago but never received any replies. When I downloaded Version 4, I set my options to show my homepage when Firefox starts. However, when I open Firefox it always shows my windows and tabs from last time instead. Anyone else have this problem?
You can check on the Processes tab of the Task Manager whether Firefox closes properly and that there are no hanging Firefox processes left (including the plugin-container process). Also make sure to wait a few seconds before you shutdown Windows after closing Firefox to allow Firefox to close properly.
See "Hang at exit":
How do I find this file? I've looked in C:\Users\<myname>\AppData\Local\Mozilla\Firefox\Mozilla Firefox, but there's a lot of stuff in that folder, and sadly, vista's search feature is crap. I've tested it with files that I KNOW are there, and it doesn't find them.
You would do better to post in your own thread by asking a question Click Here
The easiest method to find the correct folder may be by using Firefox's menu
- Firefox Button -> Help -> Troubleshooting information ->
Profile [Open containing folder]
