Bug Description
Binary package hint: firefox-3.0
When launched with an additional URL parameter Firefox 3.0.10 won't exit properly once the last open window closes. The process itself stays there and prevents from relaunching the application with a "Firefox already running" error message.
This happens even with all extensions/add-ons disabled. Those steps reproduce the issue each and every time on my system :
a) open a console
b) launch firefox using the "firefox http://
c) exit the frefox window using the window's close button (usually a "X" at the top-right of the window.
d) the Firefox window closes but the command-line prompt is not back because the process is still running. Control-C will actually kill the process and bring the prompt back.

you have a bunch of extensions installed. this is unreproducible for me, consider to disable extensions in tools -> addons until you find the extension causing this.
