firefox 19 will not allow computer to shut down I have my computer set to shutdown at 2 pm and at 2 a notice comes up and starts to count down for 10 min. Firefox and thunderbird are still running. at the end of 10 min I get a notice that application firefox did not quite and system cannot shutdown. Firefox and thunderbird have stopped any suggestions?

from previous post "I get a notice that application firefox did not quite and system cannot shutdown. Firefox has logged out and stopped.

what are you suggesting that i do from your post? I have only had the problem with scheduled shut downs?

You said that Firefox will not shut down. I thought that something on that page would be helpful.
