Public bug reported:

After upgrading firefox to version 3.6.23 few days ago, firefox does not
work properly.

At firt use after computer starting, firefox works well.
It is possible to close firefox without any issue.
But at second starting, firefox indicates it is impossible to launch firefox because firefox-bin process is still running.
The workaround is to restart the computer, or simply kill the firefox-bin process.

This behaviour happened right after upgrading firefox to version 3.6.23,
and is systematic with the profil user I use (it's an admin user).

I tested with another profil (non admin) on the computer: The problem
has not been reproduced.

System is 10.04 LTS (kernel 2.6.32-33 generic)
