Opening firefox makes it open default to my laptop screen

ODD SOUNDING TITLE.
But let me explain: I have my laptop hooked up to an external monitor, and whenever I would start firefox, it would open full-screen on my the actual monitor I have set up. Now, whenever I open it, it'll open up to my laptop monitor... which I use primarily for an extra chat window or for windows media.

How do I get it to default open on the larger monitor?
HALP.

    I might be totally wrong, but can't you go into properties and display and make the laptop screen 2, and and external monitor 1?

    Sorry if that doesn't help.

    Unmaximize it, drag it to the larger monitor, close it. Next time it opens it will be unmaximized on the large monitor. Maximize it, close it. Now it should open maximized on the larger monitor.

    mooshoepork: The monitor is already set as the default monitor, that wasn't the problem.

    Mushi: Damn fine work, man.
    Damn fine.
