Dreamweaver CS4 sharing violation

Anyone have any idea how to stop DW CS4 from popping up with a 'sharing violation' whenever you make a little change to a file (html/js/css)?

Scenario:
- working on a file, preview in browser (FF2 in this case).
- make a change to the file, try to save it.
- 'sharing violation' popup box in DW. Can't save the file, because it doesn't like the file being open in the browser at the same time.

Workaround:
- Close down the page in the browser. Sometimes works.
- If that doesn't work, you have to CNTRL/ALT/DEL to bring up the Windows Task Manager, and shut down the browser from there (this way, it will remember the sites you had open).
- Save the file in DW.
- Open up your browser again. FF2 will ask if you want to restore your sites you had open last (yes).

Also tried cleaning the cache in FF2, but no difference.

I would like to know if there is a better (permanent way) to fix this erratic, annoying and time consuming problem.

Before you ask why I use FF2 and IE6, we have to code to minimum specs, which for us is those two browsers. So I have to code and test in them.

cheers,
