Whenever my computer crashes or I have to force quit firefox, the next time I open it, it will immediately try to open all of the tabs I had open previously, causing major slowdown and memory hogging. I have to force quit again for it to bring up the normal restore tabs dialog. Is there any way to prevent this from happening?

Set the pref browser.sessionstore.max_resumed_crashes to 0 on the about:config page to get the about:sessionrestore page immediately with the first restart after a crash has occurred or the Task Manager was used to close Firefox.

That will allow you to deselect the tab(s) that you do not want to reopen, but will allow to reopen other tabs.
