For some reason, when I click on the Firefox icon on my desktop, nothing is coming up.

How do I fix this? I looked at the Mozilla help pages and nothing seems to describe how to fix this problem, since you have to have Firefox come up to fix it!

See if this works. Kill firefox.exe through the Task Manager, to open the taskmanager hit Win + R and enter taskmgr.exe in the window, hit enter, right click firefox.exe and hit "end all processes" or something similar.

See if you can start FF from All Programs on the Start menu. If you can, delete the Desktop icon, go back to FF on All Programs, right click, and select Send To - Desktop. That should create a new icon on the Desktop, which hopefully will work.
