Why do I get the message "Firebox already running but not responding"? I have to then restart the computer to get on the internet again.

I go on the internet, the web site works, but then maybe when I try to go to another web site I get a message saying that Firefox is already running, but not responding and I need to close it or restart my computer. I do not know where to go to close that site so have to restart the computer!
