How to close multiple firefox windows (not mulitple tabs)

I often have multiple internet windows open (often each window will have multiple tabs). I would like to be able to exit all the windows with just a single close of firefox. Currently, I can close each window that has multiple tabs with a single close. I would like to extend this to multiple windows (each with multiple tabs). In Explorer, I just right click on its icon and one of the options is to "close all windows" and that's it. I would like to see that option available on firefox. Thanks

hi pyramidpower, you can go into the firefox menu and hit the exit button in order to close all open firefox windows at once...
