When trying to click on firefox I get a message, firefox is already running, and asks me to close it. I have no other programs running. I cant even get firefox thru google chrome or internet explorer.
I recently upgraded to firefox 3.6, I think the inability to access firefox began after that. I`m worried that I may have lost my bookmarks.
This happened
Every time Firefox opened
For the past week, when I attempt to click on firefox

While working with Firefox, often a new window appears behind from a site I did not request. If I close Firefox then, next time I want to start again, it says that it is already open, but I can not access it. I have to restart the computer. Very annoying.

Go to Task Manager by pressing Ctrl+Alt+Delete, then in list of Process close Firefox.exe

This has been happening to me for months IN w &. It is REALLY ANNOYING. MY WAy AROUND IT IS TO PRESS Ctrl,Alt,Del & select or start the Windows Taskmaster. Select Processes Tab & scroll down until you find "firefox.exe" , select it & at the bottom select End Process. In the next window press on End Process & Firefox will be closeD. Get out of that & you will be able to start Firefox. A bit messy but saves re-starting the computer. I WISH THEY WOULD FIND A SOLUTION!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
