[Bug 70402] Search on wikipedia opens firefox. When you close firefox you cannot launch it again. It keeps saying Firefox is already running.

[QuietBloke]

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: deskbar-applet.

I am running 6.10 after upgrading from 6.06LTS.

These are the steps I did though I think any results which launch Frefox
will fail as well.

1. Ensure Firefox is not running.
2. Perform a search and select wikipedia.
3. Close FireFox.
4. Try to launch firefox or performing another search gives the dialog stating that Another FireFox is already running and you must close it first.

Apologies if this has already been reported or if I havent given
suffient information and Im still kinda new to ubuntu ( and linux ).

Thank you
