when this happens the new window opens but cannot be closed except by using the X in the top right hand corner( there is a "close " link on the web page which seems to be disabled. when the PC is switched of and on again firefox opens all the same winfdows which had been closed when shutting down

Please see solution in http://kb.mozillazine.org/Problematic_extensions for "McAfee Site Advisor".

(Windows): For best results you should uninstall McAfee Site Advisor from Control Panel > add/change programs (Programs and Features). Reboot the system. Then Reinstall from http://www.siteadvisor.com/ and reboot the system. When installing refuse other suggested (crapware) applications.

thanks for your reply. The problem seems to have been overcome by downloading the latest version of Firefox as I have not had the problem since doing so
