If I'm understanding you correctly, you need to scroll down to the
buttons on the Restore screen because you had a _lot_ of tabs open?
Maybe too many for 512 Mb RAM?  When RAM is full your swap partition
should be used but if that gets full too then you might have a
(crashing) problem. What does the Resources tab of System Monitor (under
System -> Administration) show?  Or it could be that one of the tabs has
a page with a bad piece of Javascript, causing Firefox to crash.

To get out of the Restore cycle you describe, as soon as you have
successfully restored a browsing session, close Firefox before it
crashes again.  You will be asked if you want to save all your open
tabs, I recommend saying "no", but even saying "yes" should result in
your next Firefox launch working better than an automatic restore,
although it might crash again after that depending on number of tabs
open and/or a bad piece of Javascript on a page in one particular tab.
