Why does opening new copy of Firefox maximizes all minimized copies of Firefox?

I was formally able to have several copies of Firefox running and minimized, and open a new copy of Firefox without maximizing any of the minimized copies. Now, with Firefox 3.6.12, when I open a new copy of Firefox with several Fiorefox copies minimized, not only the new copy opens, but all the minimized copies also are maximized, i.e. appear on the desktop. I have to then minimize copies I don't want to have appear on my desktop.

I went back to Ver. 3.5 and get same behavior now. Didn't used to.

Is there a setting I can change to keep the minimized copies from being maximized?

I had the same problem and uninstalling the Ask Toolbar fixed it.
