NB100 - windows open at startup

I hope someone can advise me with what is probably a simple question.

I use a NB100 running Windows XP Home Edition. There is I believe that some utilities running who remember that the windows are open, when I stopped the netbook, and who then reopens them when I then start it. Can someone tell me how can I disable this feature, because it's driving crazy me and (b) I can't find how to turn it off!

Thank you.

There are utilities, you can install that will remember your applications open to restarting. "SmartClose" is one of them, google is your friend.

  • When I open a new tab, a new window opens

    I used to be able to open multiple tabs in the same window of Firefox. Now, every time I click on a link or access an external link hyper, a new window opens instead of a new tab in the existing window.

    Browser.Link.open_newwindow has the value of integer type and a value of 3.

    It seems not to matter. The problem persists. I don't want to do a refresh or uninstall and reinstall a new copy. What can I do to fix this? As I said, it has never been this way before and it seems to have started to happen out of nowhere.

    Try to set browser.link.open_newwindow.override.external 3 as well.
