It is often possible to find and kill processes even if not on a taskbar. You will be looking for firefox.exe . I use Windows XP pro and could use the Taskkill command or TaskManager, other OS will have similar facilities .

Another thread suggests deleting profile.ini may solve similar problems, in some cases (but be careful; you are likely to loose information)
