Does everyone hear “We Are the Champions” when restoring Firefox, or has Freddie Mercury’s ghost inhabited my Mac?
When you restore Adobe do you hear “Flash Gordon”?
(sorry, I got nothin)
What is this “restore” of which you speak?
I found the culprit: a video that was in a hidden tab.
And Adobe products never need to be restored.
Until your post I wasn’t aware that Firefox ever needed to be restored, either.
Restored? Meaning?
In OS X Lion, applications that are running at log off will pick up from where they left off, the next time they’re started. I believe this is what “restore” means, in this context. (Apple calls it “Resume”, about halfway down this page: macOS Ventura - Apple)
OP, glad you solved the problem!
When Foxfire crashes, and I need to open it again, it restores whatever pages/tabs I had open before the crash.

Am I the only one who didn’t get whooshed by this?
I guess, for most people, Firefox doesn’t crash often enough that they are aware of this feature. And the issue is a result of YouTube autoplaying videos. It’s one of the reasons I use Flashblock. It also helps prevent crashes, as Flash causes 90% of those.
If it’s not as simple as a reference to Adobe Flash, then I know I was wooshed.
panache45 said he heard “We Are the Champions,” a song by Queen, when restoring Firefox. TBG then used the reference to Adobe Flash as an opportunity to work in another Queen song, the theme to the movie Flash Gordon. (“Flash, ah, ah.”)
Indeed.
