Fired up the computer this AM and notice it was running slow and seems messed up, everything's lagging, so I opened up Task manager and saw all these multiple entries for 

Seven FireFox.exe

Three NVidia Share,exe Three Dropbox.exe

and a few more multiples

Please, what should I do about this??

More than one process is normal for the current Firefox. http://www.ghacks.net/2016/07/22/multi-process-firefox/

Multi-process Firefox is codenamed "e10s". https://wiki.mozilla.org/Firefox/multiprocess
