For some reason I cannot open a new tab unless I right click on a hyperlink on the existing tab and select "open in new tab". When I click "File/New Tab" nothing happens. When I click the plus sign on the tab list nothing happens. When I press Ctrl T nothing happens.

By the way, IE has the same problem and started at the same time.

Try uninstalling the Ask toolbar and it should work again. There is a compatibility issue with the Ask toolbar and the current version of Firefox.
