That is probably the new build-in about:home page.


Firefox 4+ versions use a new build-in home page named about:home with a Google search bar on it (no internet access needed to load that page).
That about:home page only shows some snippets and has a button to restore the previous session if applicable.

  • If you want a home page without the Restore Previous Session button and the snippets then set another page as the home page like www.google.com used in Firefox 3 versions.
  • If you want a home page with extras then set another page as the home page like www.google.com as used in Firefox 3 versions.
