Tim, my man, there is a one-holed friction clamp at the base of the window
pivot within the door cavity.  In your case, the screw on this clamp has
loosened.  Obviously, you have to tighten it.  Removing the inside door trim
panel, will gain you access to this loose screw.  Because of its location, it
is a bitch to tighten, but a right angle Phillips driver with a very short
arm should work.
