Improved session restore manager for Firefox 3.1 beta 2

Session restore manager just got an update to fix a whole bunch of bugs. It will be included in the release of Firefox 3.1 and is already in the nightly releases. Instead of showing a popup message to restore the tabs when you crashed, you will get redirected to a page where you can choose if you want to restore the tabs and which tabs you want to restore. One note, this is only if the browser crashes, else it will show the normal session restore popup.


One of the major bugs that get fixed due to this is that if a web-page let the browser crash it will restart asking you to restore the tabs. If you choose yes the web-page will let the browser crash again, because the page get opened again. So actually you can only choose between: Yes, I want to restore my tabs and let my browser crash again or No, I want a clean session. With the improved restore manager you can restore every page, except the buggy web-page. That way Firefox doesn't crash again, but do you have your tabs back.
