When I have two or more windows open in Firefox 10, how do I close only one window? If I use File > Exit, or X box, all windows close.

No more details. Please advise how to do this. It happens whenever I have more than one window open.

If you use the close X on the title bar then you should only close that window and not the browser.
If you use File > Exit then you close the browser with all open windows at once (btw. this is the preferred way to exit Firefox).

You can open the File menu with the keyboard via Alt+F to see a Close Window entry (some menu entries are hidden if you use the mouse).
