User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.0; rv:2.0b12pre) Gecko/20110206 Firefox/4.0b12pre Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.0; rv:2.0b12pre) Gecko/20110206 Firefox/4.0b12pre I enabled permanent PB mode from the UI. When Firefox is closed, the "Enter private browsing" entry is always shown. When I start Firefox, it still takes some time until it updates the jumplist, then the entry is gone, but just until I close Firefox. When Firefox is closed and I select that entry, Firefox will not open. When Firefox is already open and I select that entry, nothing changes, and I see this exception: Error: [Exception... "'Abort' when calling method: [nsICommandLineHandler::handle]" nsresult: "0x80004004 (NS_ERROR_ABORT)" location: "<unknown>" data: no] I guess the exception comes from the patch for bug 601253 Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. enable permanent PB mode from the UI 2. close Firefox 3. click "Enter private browsing" entry in jumplist --- 4. start Firefox 5. click "Enter private browsing" entry in jumplist Actual Results: nothing changes Error: [Exception... "'Abort' when calling method: [nsICommandLineHandler::handle]" nsresult: "0x80004004 (NS_ERROR_ABORT)" location: "<unknown>" data: no] Expected Results: The entry should not be shown in either case / Firefox should just start in PB mode and update the jumplist immediately

Jim, what do you think we can do here? Basically we're not updating the jumplist entries in time...
