Title:
  Firefox won't unload

Status in “firefox” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

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. To open a new
  window, you must first close the existing Firefox process, or restart
  your system."

  It didn't do this until your update mechanism installed a new Flash
  Update. Now, every time I close Firefox, I have to reset my machine to
  get it running again. 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.

  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 a shame, as you had a good thing going, but Unity has
  destroyed it for me. 10.04 is as high as I am going as long as Unity
  remains.
