I have tried to reproduce this, but I can't.

How do you close your second window? By pressing Ctrl-W, by left clicking X, by ...?

Are you able to reproduce this bug with a clean profile?

It happens by left clicking the X button of my 2nd window, then my 1st window ask me if Im sure to close the window with many tabs(1st. window).

With a clean profile I cannot reproduce this bug.

OK, then it sounds like an add-on problem.

Try to start your Firefox in Safe Mode and see if that also inhibits the bug: https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Safe+Mode

If so, then you may start the add-ons one by one until the bug shows up again and you will find the offending add-on.

Lito, did you ever found out which add-on was the culprit?

Hi Thomas, I didn't do the follow up, I just updated my mozilla version and never had this problem again.

I tested plugins one by one, activating and deactivating with no answer about wichone was the troublemaker.
Now that I see I didn't posted the plugins versions, so sorry for not continuing the follow up.
cheers

OK Lito, good! I'll close the bug as INVALID since it wasn't a bug in Firefox itself.
