Creating a profile from scratch worked. It even worked after installing
my extensions (basically adblock and flashblock).

But when setting "Privacity -> History -> Iceweasel will: use a
personalized configuration for history" AND enabling the option "Clean
history when Iceweasel closes" (even with only history of navigation,
downloads & cookies selected), tabs are not saved/restored anymore. Is
this how it is supposed to be? I mean, shouldn't the "clean history"
option refer only to history? (And not currently opened windows/tabs)
