Details

"Exit Mozilla" menu item when mozilla icon in windows taskbar right-clicked cannot exit launched mozilla. ("Exit Mozilla" gray out) The function of this item is removing Mozilla in memory. Therefore, you should change this string into "Remove Mozilla"
No. Remove mozilla is meaningless to normal users.
Definitely a wontfix candidate. The common term to use for quitting and app is "Quit" or "Exit". The user need not care about what Mozilla does/doesn't in memory. :)
So when I click "Remove Mozilla" it'll delete itself from the hard drive, right? That's what any sane user would think unless (s)he happens to know that turbo mode is on and _exactly_ what turbo mode does. Even then, it's not clear.
Marking as wontfix based on the feedback.

I'll verify that. We wouldn't have this problem if we could hide the quick launch icon...

Opinions are welcome, but the recommendations of two people who are not involved in a certain area of code are not justification for a third person who is not involved in a certain area of code to mark a bug wontfix. This bug is pretty cut and dry but please refrain from doing this in the future.
