Ctrl-W closes the last tab. On my Windows XP machine I get an empty window Good. This is like Windows and Excel, you can close all pages without quitting the application. On my Windows XP Professional system it Exits Firefox. Not good. I don't want it to close until I hit Alt-F4.


This happened

Every time Firefox opened

1. Read about about:config

2. Change preference browser.tabs.closeWindowWithLastTab to false.

Does it help you?
