My firefox process wont end

When I close Firefox, the process doesn't end unless I open task manager and do so manually. Additionally, sometimes the webpages won't load unless I close (and again, end the process) and restart it.

I can't for the life of me figure out what's going on. I tried reinstalling, rebooting my computer a few times, and the problem persists.

I am using Windows 7 64

None of that was of any help. It still 'hangs', every time I close it. Sometimes, when I open it, it refuses to open the page, but still opens the process, leaving me to end the process and try again.
