why would firefox web site launch twice in a row

more options

Every time I hit my icon for firefox the web site launches twice. One web site seems to overlap the other one. One of the web sites has only something in the address box. The other web site has everything I need. When I leave the web site I have to close off twice. The first one to close off is the web site I was using. The other one has only something in the address line at top.

try running a scan on your computer to make sure you have no virus on your computer. If that doesn't solve the problem try right click on the fire fox icon and clicking open in the little side menu that pops up. I had the same problem at one point. and that is how i fixed it. and don't forget after you run a scan make sure you restart your computer.
