[tor-talk] Why will the home page in Firefox load (when TorButton is on) even though Tor itself is not loaded?

Hello,
I am using TorButton 1.4.4. It is set to be on automatically when Firefox
loads.
The way my system works is that Tor runs when Vidalia runs. I manually load
Vidalia then open Firefox.
However, I have noticed that if I do not have Vidalia running and I load
Firefox then the bookmarked home page will load. If I try any other page I
get the "proxy server is refusing connections" error.
I delete the cache and cookies before opening Firefox.
Why will the home page load even though Vidalia (and Tor) are not running
and TorButton is running?
Thanks.
