I tried the fix in the linked thread, but it did not work for me.
Once I had modified and saved the mozilla.cfg file, Firefox would not open, instead I would get a configuration error. As soon as I removed the '#' and saved the file, Firefox opened to the Navigatrix home page, no problem.
I fixed the problem by changing 'When Firefox starts:' to 'Show my windows and tabs from last time'. It is in the 'Startup' section on the 'General' tab of Firefox Preferences. I then navigated to the site I wanted when Firefox started, closed and opened Firefox and there was the page I wanted.
HTH,
