My settings are to open links in a new tab. The Tab will show 

                                    'Loading...  '

This requires exiting Firefox and reloading. Upon reloading the following message will appear 

                                    'Firefox is already running...  '

It is then necessary to run the Task Manager and kill the process to reload

This is a constant problem after installing version 3.6.10. Does anyone have a clue what is going on. It is really getting annoying.
