help! extra instance of firefox. :(
Date: 07/03/07
(Mozilla) Keywords: browser
Since upgrading to 2.0.0.4 from previous version:
A. Upon launch, a small Firefox box - with the minimize, full screen, close buttons (and the 'fox logo) comes up and docks itself to the upper left corner of my screen. It does nothing. A second, real browser window opens after a few moments, and it is with this window that I can check email, etc.
B. Whenever I click on a link from Thunderbird, another instance of Firefox is also launched. The link opens up in a tab on the (main/first) browser window, and the new instance does the same thing, hang out in that corner - as shown in the screencap.
So: How can I get rid of this extra instance of Firefox? Thanks in advance for your help.
