The window corners of the whole application are round under WinXP. If you click
in the top right corner you close the application behind Firefox. It should have
fully filled corners like in the bottom left and right. Also top left is round
and if you click there you bring the application in the back to the front.


Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Open other application and resize to full screen
2.Open Firefox
3.click in the top right corner -> other application closes

Actual Results:  
Firefox is not closed, but instead the other application.

Expected Results:  
Firefox should be closed.

Isn't this due to the Windows theme that is applied? If you use the Windows XP
default theme ("Windows XP" in the theme list), the top corners of *all* windows
are rounded (except those that are maximised). I believe that this is controlled
by the operating system, not individual applications. 

If this is the problem, a possible solution would be to switch to a theme that
doesn't give windows rounded corners - e.g. Windows Classic.

I used the default theme. I did not install additional themes. 
You should change the default theme to a "not" rounded corner design. 

The theme says: "Firefox (default) 2.0 Gerich and Horlander"

Sorry, i did not have the window maximized! I thought it is maximized because it
used the whole desktop. I changed to maximized view and tried again. Now the
corner is not round anymore. But when not maximized the corners are round.
Sorry again.

switch to the 'classic' theme on windows, that will disable rounded corners on
windows
