using Session Saver and it locks up Firefox. You might like to thank him 
yourself:

>> Yup, definitely no Firefox problem. Your problem was caused by the 
>> Session Saver extension. Either don't use that or tell the author 
>> about your problem, and he'll be delighted to fix it. These guys 
>> actually like problems and fixing them (sending the author a copy of 
>> this).

>> Seems the Session Saver extension needs to learn how to deal with some 
>> especially aggressive popup you ran into. Firefox's popup blocker is 
>> already the best, but maybe the Session Saver or Firefox don't know 
>> all the newest tricks yet.

>> Basically, the extension did exactly what it was supposed to, remember 
>> the last page you visited and always restarted Firefox with that. It 
>> just happened the last page you opened was a popup. Definitely no 
>> browser hijacking.
