My firefox is doing the same thing now, but it didn't do it until you forced me to get a Flash Update. Every time I get my machine running perfectly, you guys have me do an update, and something screws up. As much as I hate Microsoft, I'm just about ready to go back to Windows again.
Every damn time I close firefox I have to reset my machine. All I get is "Firefox is already running, but is not responding. To open a new window, you must first close the existing Firefox process, or restart your system." I close it, the task bar clears, then the same thing happens when I try to run firefox again. After three years of Ubuntu, I'm right up to my neck in your updating scheme. You guys are upgrading, or 'improving' Ubuntu right into the dumpster. That's your choice, I guess! -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to firefox in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/156790 Title: firefox-bin still there when I close Firefox Status in “firefox” package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Bug description: When I close firefox and try to start it again, I receive the following message: "Firefox is already running, but is not responding.
