Using ver 6.0.2 on Win7-64. Most of the time when I close Firefox and then re-open, I get a message that Firefox is already running. Why is this happening?

Using ver 6.0.2 on Win7-64. Most of the time when I close Firefox and then re-open, I get a message that Firefox is already running. I then have to pull up Task Manager, click on the Processes tab, find the 'firefox.exe' process, then end the process. I believe this started about two updates ago.Why is this happening?
