Are you clicking on the x or the + in the tab bar?
If I understand you correctly, what you are trying to do is to close firefox when you close your last tab. If that is the case then the solution is as follows:
- Write "about:config" (without quotes) in address bar and press Enter
- You will get a page saying "This might void your warranty". Don't worry, just click "I'll be careful, I promise!"
- In the search bar write "browser.tabs.closeWindowWithLastTab" (without quotes)
- Look in the column named value. If it's "false" then right-click on it and select toggle.
- If it's "true", then your problem might be elsewhere.
Does a middle-click with the mouse scroll wheel close the current tab?
Start Firefox in Safe Mode to check if one of the extensions (3-bar Menu button/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem.
- Switch to the DEFAULT theme: 3-bar Menu button/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance
- Do NOT click the Reset button on the Safe Mode start window
