if i go to a site and click on a link in the site - sometimes the back button is not there. If I try to close the top window to go back to the original site, it warns me I'm going to close both windows. I only want to close one but don't know how so I wind up closing both and having to re-open firefox.

Start Firefox in Diagnose Firefox issues using Troubleshoot Mode to check if one of the extensions is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).

After trying above suggestions:

  • Use CTRL + W to Close One Tab at a time
  • When there is only One Tab in a Window, using CTRL + W will Close the whole Window
  • The attached image shows the Warning when you try to Close a Window with Multiple Tabs by clicking X(Close) button at the top-right of a window

Check and tell if its working.
