Firefox won't shutdown when I close it, and it stays running but won't reload on screen when asked. It says Firefox is running and won't let me reload. I end up closing it with Task Manager. Suggestions?
see sentences above. Firefox stays running, but the screen clears of Firefox and I can't restart it from the icons.

Hi,
Please see this. Please note that the definite way to close Firefox is File (Alt + F) > Exit and would usually take a few seconds depending on the history clearing settings in Tools (Alt + T) > Options > Privacy > Settings beside Clear History when Firefox closes. If a plugin is causing delay you can also try to End Process the plugincontainer process and check if Firefox closes on its own.
