After I close Firefox and want to re-start it a box pops up and says that it is already running. It won't re-start, and I have to re-start the computer. This has happened after I installed the latest update. Help?

I'm using a PC with Vista home. Firefox worked fine until it was updated. If I want to use Firefox after it has been closed, it won't open unless I re-start the computer. I click on the icon, and a message box pops up: Firefox is already running.
