Some questions about Firefox

I'm running XP pro. I just uninstall Firefox 0.9.2 and install the new version 0.9.3. And now I have a problem.
When I receive a new mail in yahoo mailbox. Yahoo Messenger informs me with an icon in the system tray. When I double click that icon, it should open the web browser and go directly to my yahoo mail, but it DOES NOT - nothing happens when I double click it. Firefox is already set as my default browser and the option to access my yahoo mail in YM is enabled. Does anyone know how to fix it?
Another problem is when I open many tabs in Firefox. When I close Firefox with more than 1 tab opening, it promps for a confirmation. Oneday, I ticked "Don't ask me again", and it never asks me again. But sometimes I accidentally close Firefox with many tabs opening... So I wanna get that option back but I can't not find it in Tools --> Options. How can I get it again?

I have a solution for your tab pop-up problem. In your address bar, type about:config. Then scroll down until you see browser.tabs.warnOnClose. Set that to "true". I attached a screenshot for convenience.

Leave me alone. This site won't allow attachments bigger than 100Kb, which is downright moronic, so I had to put a terribly crappy screenshot in.

Ah, another question for Firefox is in the Compose page in Yahoo Mail, it disables the emoticon. How can we enable it in Firefox?
