anyone else having a problem with closing firefox? whenever i close the browser the process is still running. so that whenever i want to relaunch firefox i have to do a lame ctrl+alt+del , close firefox.exe

that just adds to the fucked picture redirecting that "customize google addon" used to do so well...

not cool

You sure you don't have some addon, maybe ChatZilla, still running? Just clicking the X on the firefox window doesn't close it.

I have that but it only keeps running for a maximum of about 30 seconds after I close it. So I just wait it out, can be annoying sometimes.

how long are you waiting in between the time that you close firefox and the time that you try to start it up again?
That error happens to me as well when I try to restart firefox too fast. It takes time for the process thread to be ended. If it takes longer than a minute to close though, then you probably have a problem.
PhotographerLiquipedia. Drop me a pm if you've got questions/need help.

No but I had a worse problem -- with IE -- everytime I tried to close the window it would get stuck and say that the program was not responding. Then when I went to ctrl + alt + delete and terminate the process, the "explorer" process would be terminated and all my entire desktop would go fuck.

I had to restart my computer =(

(fuck IE)

I have to think this is a problem with one of your extensions/plugins

I have that problem too but for me, if I wait like 10 seconds and click the firefox icon again, it's fine. Just wait it out or experiment with your extensions.

I only have this problem when I'm running poker tracker. The browser won't close or open if it has already been closed or opened while PT is running.
..and then I would, ya know, check em'. (Aka SpoR)
