Firefox stopped and now won't load. What happened?

When I had Pandora playing and was out of the room, the music stopped. When I checked, Firefox was off and will not load now.

Hello there,

If Firefox won't load then you would need to launch Task Manager [Ctrl]+[Alt]+[Del] and kill every Firefox tab. Once you've cleared that then you can go ahead and uninstall Firefox completely from Control panel. http://windows.microsoft.com/en-gb/windows/uninstall-change-program#uninstall-change-program=windows-7

Now you can go ahead and reinstall Firefox again and that should solve the issue you're currently experiencing.

Hope this helps!
