Public bug reported:
This may not be a firefox bug, but it was the program run immediately
before this happened. A system boot clears the problem.
Description: Ubuntu 14.04 LTS
Release: 14.04
firefox:
Installed: 28.0+build2-0ubuntu2
Candidate: 28.0+build2-0ubuntu2
Version table:

After closing my firefox session, I called up my script for SimCity 4
Deluxe and the wine console reported this:
err:winediag:FILE_CreateFile Too many open files, ulimit -n probably
needs to be increased
The ulimit shell command returns:
john@john-12-10:~$ ulimit
unlimited
There is either something wrong with the firefox wrapup routine or the
system is not releasing file handles promptly nor properly.
I expected my application to run. It has run earlier today before the
firefox session, and will run after a system boot. In any case, it is
most annoying that the system is crippled after a run in the browser.
