Details

This might be a dupe (didn't come up with it in about 5 searches).

In Netscape 4.x, if you have more than one Netscape window open, and you choose 
File\Exit, a dialog will popup with the title "Netscape Exit Confirmation" with 
the question "Close all windows and exit Netscape?"

This should be implemented in Mozilla also. It is very confusing because many 
users don't make the connection that Messenger and Navigator (or even two 
Navigator windows) are part of the same program, and thus choose "Exit" when 
they mean "Close" to close that particular window. I myself made this mistake a 
few days ago. I wanted to close mailnews and go back to browsing, but I chose 
"Exit" and all the Mozilla windows instantly got deleted.
