Strangely if you erase or change the value of that preference, it still runs. Does that mean it's checking something else?

Hello, I'm one of the developers of the tour module on the Firefox team. The whitelist preference adds the whitelisted domains to the permission database when the application is upgrade to today's released (version 29) so changing the preference doesn't change the domains already whitelisted. You can disable the feature using the browser.uitour.enabled if for some reason this feature bothers you. Note that is also requires HTTPS for the whitelist domains too.
