Occasionally, if I left click on a link, instead of FF opening the

a titlebar. The "main" FF window acts like a program that is hung
somewhat.
That sort of thing is usually down to user-un-friendly webmasters doing
annoying things in their authoring.
The nasty thing is that if I click on the X in the upper right
corner
to close the new child window, it completely kills FF, even if there
are several tabs open. I can generally refresh the page and the window
goes away and open properly in the main window. It's really annoying
and I can't reproduce it at will but it does happen often.
That shouldn't happen, I'd report that as a bug. Just for curiosity's
sake, do you get the same thing happening if you close this extra window
when using the ALT & F4 hotkeys to close a window? (Make sure the right
window is active, first.)
