Recently the tabs are not working, I click to open a new tab and nothing happens, using CTRL+T does not work, only right clicking and selecting a link to open a new tab works so I have to do that on a random link everytime i need a new tab. Solutions?

I have shutdown FF, restarted laptop etc. Only thing I haven't tried is re-installing FF which is something I don't want to do.

Chosen solution

The Ask Toolbar is causing that in the Firefox 3.6.13 version. Evidently something in that extension isn't compatible with a Firefox security fix. Disable that extension or un-install it.
