Type about:config in your url bar, find the line called browser.sessionstore.resume_session_once and make sure is set to false

All non-default settings are written in bold.

In a worst case scenario, you could also delete the user.js located in %APPDATA%\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\

If that solution doesn't work you could always try reinstalling it.

That would likely clear up any corruption which could be causing this.

Deleting user.js worked...
Thanks!

Lucky you, mine is telling me each time that there was a problem restoring the previous session and I have to click 'Restore' every time. Strangely enough, the session is restored each and every time, so I'm not sure why it won't restore it by itself.
