Aterm: Not starting in home directory?

Hmm this is actually something quite new to me, I've been using Aterm for awhile now and this has never happened to me.

Usually when you start aterm it opens up in your home directory, or it used to for me. Now when I open aterm it starts up in my python folder(the folder I most often go to).

I'm thinking that maybe aterm was updated to start going to the directory you are most often in? If thats so, how do I change it back to default opening to my home directory?

Sometimes if you don't use any display managers to log in to X with, and you boot into console framebuffer. Changing your directory in the framebuffer och then starting X causes your terminal to load with whatever directory you was in before starting X.

I always use a DM so that wouldn't explain much tongue. Even when I restart though it still uses my python directory as default.

How do you start aterm? If I start it in another aterm, the new aterm will start with the directory where it was started.
