using firefox 2.0
this occurs 1 time in every 3 times i use firefox.

Prob: Although i've selected to quit firefox or just alt+Q it closes the window but the arrow under the icon doens't go away. Once i right-click on it, it states that it isn't responding, so i'll have to click on force quit..
how do i correct this?

Quitting an application is done with Command-Q, not Alt-Q. If you right- or Ctrl-click Firefox in the dock, choose "Quit" from the menu.
