I'm using the upstream firefox nightly and when I issue the command "ps -ef | grep firefox" I get 14 lines displayed after I have shut firefox down, and as far as I am aware I still have it configured to not to continue running background tasks after shutdown.

OK, is there a line where the command line starts with firefox as there would be if you'd just started it by clicking on the icon? If so, use kill -9 to get rid of it and see what happens.
I've just checked again having shut firefox down around 15 minutes ago and there are no firefox threads hanging around, so maybe my original view was just the command being issued at the wrong time.

Steve
