How can I disable Firefox from automatically opening on system startup on my Mac - unchecking the "open at login" does not work?

We have Firefox 10.o on our Macbook Pro OS X 10.5.8. I prefer using Firefox as my browser but my husband prefers Safari for now because of a long history of bookmarks and saved information he doesn't have time to re-do. He is tired of Firefox automatically opening when we start up the laptop, and even when we uncheck the "open at login" it still opens at login every time. He is about to uninstall it because of this. How can we disable? It does NOT show up in our account on the Mac OS as an application that starts at login, so we can't disable it there.

For those of you running Windows, I found this on another site. (Unfortunately, not before getting totally disgusted and switching to chrome.)
1. click start (or the windows flag button at the bottom left) 2. in the "search programs and files" or the RUN dialog box, enter "msconfig.exe" or "msconfig". 3. That should open the system configuration program. 4. click the "Startup" tab at the top of the opened program. 5. Under the "startup item" column, look for Mozilla firefox. 6. uncheck that one. 7. Click OK or apply. 8. click "exit without restart". 9. you're good to go.

How can I disable firefox on macbook pro

I want to disable fireox or uninstall it. How do I accomplish one of these tasks?

I don't think it's Firefox that's the issue, rather your Library file that contains the instructions which browser is your preferred one to launch.
No browser should erupt in the middle of PhotoShop, InDesign or Word unless there is some sort of background upgrade process or a link you clicked in those programs that reqiure the browser (any browser) to launch.
If it does, then it's just going to bring Safari into your face just like Firefox.
I think you need to look into the possibility something is further wrong with your machine, I suspect perhaps you may have accidentially installed a adware trojan and/or perhaps one of your preference (.plist) files in your Library (hidden) is corrupted.
Security Issues Warning List
See #12 and #13 here, also just tune up your machine

also this if you find any corrupted preference files.

Firefox works extremely well and very user friendly, it's quite frankly the best browser, the most customizable, the most add-ons and themes and is the fastest one if you know how to tweak it.

How to deploy disabled Firefox as the default PDF viewer via GPO

I am trying to change the settings of 204 Windows 7 PCs. They all use Firefox and with have Adobe Acrobat XI. I would like to know how to use the Mozilla Administrative Template or how to create a GPO to change the default pdf viewer in Firefox to Acrobat XI.

I'm having this problem too, except I'm trying to push it out to 400 PC's with 2-10 users per PC. i need a way to be able to configure it so when a user logs into the PC via our domain login Firefox will be automatically configured to open PDF's from Firefox in an Adobe Reader window, otherwise we have to manually configure it like FredMcD said, and that gets very frustrating after the 2nd PC

How to permanently disable Firefox Safe Mode option in firefox version 22?

We have a requirement to disable the safe mode option in Firefox so that everytime firefox can be started in normal mode even if the firefox browser was crashed previously .

hello, you could try this - enter '''about:config''' into the firefox location bar (confirm the info message in case it shows up) & search for the preference named '''toolkit.startup.max_resumed_crashes'''. double-click it and change its value to '''-1'''. this will only disable safemode after a certain amaount of crashes occurred though, not when somebody launches it manually...
