Tab Issues
Closing last tab closes Firefox
1) In the location (address) bar, type about:config
2) In the filter box, type browser.tabs.closeWindowWithLastTab
3) Change this to false.
This is expected behavior.
Moved tab becomes a new window (Tab Tear)
A tab was closed and opened again in a new window.
When you move a tab off the tabstrip Firefox will open that tab in a new window. This action can be undone by dragging the tab in the new window back to the original tabstrip. This is expected behavior.

Another work around to this problem was posted to the above on July 6th.
The recommended work around follows:
Windows let's the user control the maximum amount of disk space used for the "Temporary Internet Files". The default setting is extremely generous. On my old 250GB drive, it was over 8GB. Setting it down to say 100MB or 200MB should REALLY help reduce the sheer number of files to be scanned.
To adjust that, go to Control Panel, Internet Options, General Tab.
Under the Temporary Internet Files heading, click the "Settings" button.
Change the number under "Amount of disk space to use" to 100 or 200.
Click OK. Then, back in the Internet Options, General tab, under the Temporary Internet Files heading, click the "Delete Files" button.
Put a check in the box that says "Delete all offline content". Click OK.
Click OK to dismiss the Internet Options panel.
