Correct. There are two pages. The "first run" (not sure what it's really 
called) page is a special page that should only come up the very first 
time you install a new release. The "start" page or "home" page is a 
different page, configurable by the user and will come up on all 
subsiquent starts of the Browser.

This is slightly modified behavior. We've had the two different pages 
for a while> It used to be that the "first run" page only popped up on 
first run of a new profile and you'd never see it again on that profile. 
  Now you will see it pop up 1 time with each new release you install. 
This will allow for older profiles upgrading to a new release to see a 
"what's new since the last release" page or something like that. The 
feature is controversial and probably a bit confusing to folks who 
install every new Milestone.
