If the restore feature is not enabled, I'm not sure Firefox stores the data.

There are two different possible session-restored features for Firefox 2:

- the builtin one (in plain-vanilla Firefox) set at the same place in the

- the one in the Tab Mix Plus extension, which is much more powerful; that's
the one I use. YMMV.
