How can I change the order of selection in a right-click on a URL in Google/Yahoo? I want "New Tab" to be first instead of "New Window?"

Go to Tools > Options > Tabs. Check mark "Open new windows in a new tab instead"

Thank you, but that doesn't solve the problem. All that does is open the selected page on the tab I am on.

Instead of using right-click > Open in New Tab, have you tried to middle-click the link or bookmark to open it in a new tab? (middle-click = press the mouse scroll wheel)
