This isn't a problem - it's a comment on your visible designs for Fx/Tb.

I have many Windows display settings changed to enlarge things. Plus I installed "Classic Start Menu 1.9.1" I find Win7 pretty but designed by people with perfect vision who are used to small screen controls and low contrast. (No I'm not blind)

Several design choices in Firefox & Thunderbird use tiny icons - for example close tabs "X" is impossible to click. Older versions had larger red tab-close buttons. You can see several tiny icons in this cropped screen shot: http://web.ncf.ca/pat/FIREFOX.JPG. Notice part of Thunderbird window on right side shows the "list all tabs" drop-down arrow at far right end of tab bar - it's almost invisble! Fortunately the entire gray button is clickable even though you can hardly distinguish it as a button. The tab "X" is a little easier to see but much harder to click. Am I stuck with these or is there something I can set to make clickable things a bit larger?

P.S. I wouldn't bother about this if I didn't think the products were superior and worth improving.

Alternatively you can middle click a tab to close that tab. That works always, also if that tab is not selected.

You can also for a large theme.

I know several ways to do everything - that isn't the problem, just an example of the problem. I tested some "large" themes but no joy. I wonder what they consider "large". One used smaller icons than default and then only changed the navigation & tab bars but not the icons on the menu bar. As I said before, I wouldn't have bothered to write if I didn't think improving the design wasn't worth the effort. Even with the best mouse, clicking that tiny X is a difficult. And I discoverd Fx also has a tab drop-down list - also so tiny I didn't even know it was right beside the close tab button!
