jeankoala, please see my comments above.  This is not a bug, and quiting
the Ubuntu session should not be necessary.  What is likely happening
for you is that firefox is taking a little bit of extra time to clean up
after the Java applets upon close.  This would be highly dependent upon
the applets that you are viewing and the resources that they need.

If you give firefox time to shut down completely (I never had to wait
more than 30 seconds, although usually it is about 5 seconds), then you
should be able to start up a new FF session without issues.  Or, you
could open a new window before closing out the old window to avoid the
problem altogether.

Thank you for using Ubuntu and helping to make it better!  I hope you
find this information useful.
