Running firefox 3.6.12 on my iMAC (Mac OS 10.6.5) and all of a sudden, the firefox.dmg disk image is mounting every time i start the program. If I try to eject the image - OS returns message "disk image is in use - quit firefox and eject"...

Not sure why this would just start happening..

Thanks...

Make sure that Firefox gets installed properly.
Open the DMG file and drag to Firefox program to the application folder on your hard drive.
You shouldn't double-click the Firefox application to run it from the disk image, but drag it out of the DMG folder instead.
