[Bug 809988] [NEW] Recent intermittent issues

[Brian Smith]

Public bug reported:

Firefox works fine. Sometimes...when I close the browser, it closes with
no problems. The icon on the launcher doesn't have the little arrow that
shows that it's still open. Yet, if I try to run Firefox again later...I
receive an error message that says something like: "Firefox is currently
running. Please close the open window or re-boot your computer." Since I
can find no open Firefox session, re-booting the PC is my only option.
After the boot, the browser works fine...but eventually the problem will
come back up.
