When highlighted it says important to keep running, I would agree however it shuts off Not sure if your update wanted that or IE-8 is shutting it off some how. What say you?

hello smillington123, the mozilla maintenance service is only used during the update procedure of firefox to a newer version - so it's normal that the service isn't running all of the time.
