I have an application that I access with Firefox. It's a pain to launch again when I mean to minimize FF and accidentally hit close instead. Is there a setting (such as in Tools) to display an "Are you sure?" message when I make this mistake?

This happened

A few times a week

== They let me use Firefox

Not when only one Tab is open, the "are you sure" only works when multiple Tabs are open.

One solution might be to right-click anywhere on the Titlebar and select Minimize or use the n key after right-clicking - that will keep you from accidentally hitting the wrong button in the upper-right corner of the Firefox window.
