This is an issue for me, since it's the family computer. Is there a way to turn this feature off?

Are there any other applications that make use of this horrible feature? :)

You have to close down your tabs before quitting, Lion saves your window states for you, you can uncheck this option when you shutdown/restart.

Actually it is in system preferences -> General
Or Option-Command-q when quitting

Since you're going to accidentally leave porn up for other people to see by no disabling it, I really do suggest you follow this instruction.
 
That option doesn't work for crap unfortunately, Safari, TextEdit, and Preview still do this crap

Is there any way not to have new messages come in in Mail without grouping by conversation? On the iPad, it's fine, but on the Mac, I want each new message to just be its own message - not have other messages in the same group.

I fixed the issue by going to General Preferences and unchecking the "restore windows when quitting.." AND also by setting the number of recent items settings to "none" for applications, documents and servers.

It seemed to do the trick.
 
This is happening for me as well. I already tried what was suggested and it's still opening my previously open tabs.
 
I also had this issue... setting the number of recent applications to None and unticking "Restore windows when quitting..." seems to have worked. :)
