I use firefox as my browser. If I quit and close the screen, but leave the power on in my computer, and try to reopen firefox, the message comes up saying that firefox is still running but not responding. It doesn't show up as an application that is running, but it does show in the processes page. I can't sign on into firefox again without restarting my computer or going to the process page and ending the process. Any Ideas???
