To clarify - the new tab or window appears, and the web address is showing correctly in the address bar, but for some reason the new page won't load unless I manually highlight it and hit return. Please help!

This issue can be caused by an extension that isn't working properly.

Start Firefox in Diagnose Firefox issues using Troubleshoot Mode to check if one of the extensions is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).
