I am getting this on a new install on feisty.  On my laptop, where I
played all around with apt-get back and forth to get feisty up, it has
only occurred so far this morning, and not at all on my older desktop at
my house which I installed with the GUI upgrade methods.  But on my
newest machine, which I did a complete reinstall on last night and this
morning from CD, it is doing it a lot.

I believe the browser came up correctly once.  I'm not sure how  I
killed it to make it do this.

The complete popup is:

"Close Firefox" (on the top bar)
then a question mark balloon icon and the following text:

Firefox is already running, but is not responding.  To open a new
window, you must first close the existing Firefox process, or restart
your system.

The only other item is an OK button.

Unlike the first statement above, I first saw an entry in ps auxw that
ended in "firefox-bin", but upon killing it, I tried again to bring up
FF and got the same diagnostic popup.

I then tried to bring up the epiphany web browser and it doesn't respond
at all.

I then try completely restarting the machine, and logging in again, but
Firefox still fails in the same way.
