I've had this problem too. I've tried using the firefox executable (with and 
without various arguments), as well as various scripts on the net that claim 
to launch it for you. I also posted to the kde mailing list. Nothing worked 
properly.

Either one instance of firefox would launch, but no more, or a new page would 
replace another one I had up, instead of using a new windows/tab.

I gave up in the end.
