The firefox *32 process is left running in memory after exiting Firefox. You cannot restart firefox without either killing the process (ctrl-alt-del ...) or restarting the computer.

I am running Windows 7 pro 64bit and Firefox 6.0.2 swedish version.

I haven't had this kind of a problem with prior versions of Firefox.

Reinstalling Java did the trick (https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Firefox%20is%20already%20running%20but%20is%20not%20responding).

Thanks!
