I can't follow instructions because popup says Firefox already running; CLOSE button used to work but doesn't today.

Sometimes when I open Firefox I get a box (shouldn't have used the word POPUP--it distracted the search function)--anyhow, a box saying Firefox already running and I select the CLOSE FIREFOX button and everything is fine but today CLOSE FIREFOX refuses to close firefox.
