For some reason I got a sudden flash of inspiration (well, only a 25 watt bulb). With firefox open and maximized, right click on the top bar of the window. This displays a menu. Click on Advanced, Special Window Settings, Geometry, Size and then change the "Do Not Affect" to "Rember" and change the window resolution to what is desired (mine was 1024,733 -> 1024.768). Then closed the session and it starts up the way I want.
