Even if it's the same .xpi file, this may be confusing for Firefox users who click on it.

I suggest you to replace it with https://addons.mozilla.org/addon/private-tab/ , with the browser and language strings removed, so it goes to the Mozilla site with the user's own system language and hopefully browser too. I've just tested it on Firefox.

Strange, homepage isn't hardcoded in the sources and comes from Firefox add-on manager. For me appears correct https://addons.mozilla.org/ru/firefox/addon/private-tab/?src=api (for Russian locale).

I really don't know what caused this to my main Firefox profile then. After your comment, I thought that maybe I was the one who had installed the extension from the SeaMonkey page (https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/seamonkey/addon/private-tab/) and that Firefox had set that URL as the extension homepage (and didn't change it even after I updated Private Tab manually).

However, I just used that SeaMonkey link to install Private Tab on a fresh profile of Firefox, and the link on the Add-ons Manager is the correct Firefox one (similar to yours).

Since I can't reproduce it, I'm closing this issue and won't report it to Mozilla.
