 In Linux I've noticed that if you are first running Firefox, then you
 start the Tor Browser Bundle and for any reason, you need to shut down
 Firefox and you want to restart it you can't, just another window of the
 Tor browser bundle will open, not Firefox.

 Or if you start Tor first, then you can't open Firefox...

 I personally don't get why there should be any relation like this to each
 other, since the concept of the Tor browser bundle is suppose to be self
 contained unit...

 I hope the Tor Project will please figure this out so that Firefox can be
 run at anytime on it's own along side Tor.

 THANKS
