I am running Windows 7. Sometimes when I try to open Firefox, I get a message that says Firefox is already running. I check task manager, no Firefox running. Have to log off then back on.

1) You should update to Firefox 7.0.1

2) Is plugin-container.exe listed?

I rolled back to version 5 and then 4 because version 7 was slow to load and would freeze up often. The original problem started before I upgraded to version 7. How do I check to see if plug-in container.exe is listed?

Open Task Manager and look for an entry by the name of plugin-container.exe.
