Firefox won't terminate completely, I have to go into task manager and kill the process. This has been going on since ver 3.5 on Vista I've reinstalled everything from the ground up multiple times, "fixed" the registry with multiple programs, replaced Jave and Flash, deleted plugins and extensions...
