Bring up the Windows Task Manager, but look in the "Processes" tab for firefox.exe, and close it from there, it won't do you any good looking for it in the "Applications" tab when you don't see it on the system taskbar.

closing Firefox properly, and for when you just want to close and restarting Firefox immediately, see more information in
