When Firefox 15 is run from a script file with Windows' START command, then the START command doesn't return as expected. This bug has occurred with FF 15.0, while FF 14.0 runs fine with it. Please fix.

Example "Internet.bat": start "" "C:\Program Files (x86)\Mozilla Firefox\firefox.exe"

If this behaviour was intentionally added, then please only enable it via a parameter or config settings.
