I have recently started using firefox. Everytime i shut down the pc it will not shut down automaticlly...It says firefox is waiting for a programe to close and for windows live messanger to close..I wait and nothing Happens so in the end everytime i have to force shut down my pressing force shut down button. This also happens on logging off to switch to a diffrent user. This happens everytime i close down.

The following may not completely eliminate having to terminate Firefox through the Windows Control Panel but it will come very close.

Plug-in and tasks started by Firefox may continue after attempting to close Firefox The "X" in the upper right-hand corner closes the Window (same as Ctrl+Shift+W) but even if it is the last Firefox window, it does not necessarily close Firefox .

The only proper way to exit Firefox is to use Exit through the File menu, not the "X" in the upper right corner of last Firefox window. In the Beta that would be Alt+F then X

Use the Windows Task Manger to remove all running firefox.exe in the "Processes" tab of the Windows Task Manager, then restart Firefox.

If Firefox will still not start, remove the parent.lock file from the profile which is created each time Firefox is started to prevent other Firefox tasks from running, see

Avoiding Problems with close/restart choose either extension

Use to close and restart Firefox after enabling or disabling an extension, switching to a new theme, or modifying configuration files, then you don't have to worry about delay or have to look in the Task Manager to see if Firefox is closed yet.

Both extensions use the same keyboard shortcut "Ctrl+Alt+R" or a file menu option.

Firefox 5.0 now available in my area anyway "Ctrl+H" (Help) > About Firefox
