Hi Everyone

All too often I find I close TB accidentally. Is there a way to have a promt ask me to confirm that I want to close TB?

I used to have an extention which would prompt me to confirm deleting a message but it stopped working. Is there another way to do this?

Thanks.

I don't know of a way to have a confirmation on closing, but with the Minimize on Close add-on, TB will minimize to the taskbar when you close the window, so to actually close requires an extra step (File/Exit). See also Keep in Taskbar.
