There are a few possible causes for this error, for details see https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Firefox+is+already+running+but+is+not+responding

In your case it sounds like Firefox is not closing normally, in which case teh "Hang at exit" section of this article is relevant - https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Firefox+hangs
