sometimes firefox will not allow me to close it either by using the "X" or right clicking on tab at bottom of page. Sometimes it will not even allow me to close it by going to file, I have to use Task manager to close. How do I fix this.

Because Firefox sucks that way. I have the same problem. Royal pain in the @$$. I have to use the task manager to duck out of it, or you have to w8 & count to 10...lol. Stupid program.
