Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.2; WOW64; rv:22.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/22.0 If you have a Firefox instance running and try to install the Firefox 22 Yahoo repack build, the installer keeps prompting to close Firefox in order to go on with the installation process and you cannot stop that from occurring until you close any other running firefox process (neither OK nor "X" button does not help) Steps to reproduce: 1. Launch any Firefox you have on the computer 2. Download Firefox Yahoo repacked build installer(http://downloads.yahoo.com/firefox/) 3. Run the installer -> prompt appears: "Firefox must be closed to proceed with the installation. Please Close Firefox to continue" 4. Press the "OK" or the "X" (close) button Expected result: Prompt should be dismissed Actual result: Prompt appears again and it only dismisses when you close the other running firefox process (close Firefox from step 1) Note: Reproducible across windows platforms (XP, 7, 8)
