Here’s a Firefox add-on that makes it easier to close tabs. Instead of clicking the X button or using a hotkey, you can click anywhere on the screen and the tab will close.
The “Double Click Closes Tab” add-on lets you specify what happens when you click on a tab or when you click anywhere within the Firefox window. The add-on’s default settings are as follows:
Double Click Closes Tab – Options
Double Click Closes Tab – When clicking inside pages
Double Click Closes Tab – When clicking on tabs

“Double Click Closes Tab” is available for free on Mozilla’s Add-ons site here.
