Actual results: Firefox does not quit. The windows are closed, but the app remains active. Unless it crashes by itself after a while, I need to force quit Firefox. Expected results: Firefox should just quit.

I am using Firefox 22. The bug as outlined in the first report. i.e it remains active after closing Still exists. I use Ccleaner after each session and it asks if it must close down Firefox which I have already done. It then says Firefox wont close and asks if it must force a close down. Ccleaner then forces close down and carries on cleaning. I have verified this with the Windows Task Manager. Firefox is not shown under applications but it is shown as running under processes. OS. Windows XP Pro SP3 add-ons. Do not track me. Bluhell Firewall Anti-virus. Threatfire. Pc Tools av. Pc Tools Firewall
