I close Firefox. It immediately closes and disappears from the task bar. At times, if I try to open it within 5 or 10 seconds after, it will display a message that '....Firefox is already running......' and will not launch Firefox until waiting for a few more seconds. In the last couple days, it has appeared to be closed when I close it (same scenario as above). But it is saying it is still open for an extended period of time - 30+ seconds. So I go into task manager and end the process. Then it will launch.
