Why doesn't FF take me to my email program when I click on an email address on a web page?
In the last two weeks, when I click on an email address link on a web page, instead of taking me to my email program (gmail), my FF browser opens up all my bookmark tabs--as many as 400--and essentially crashes. I use Mac OSX, version 10.6.6. I notice that "bookmarks and history" appears in the web browser window when this happens.

If you inadvertently set Firefox for mailto it will keep opening blank tabs until it crashes.
Check the Mailto application in Firefox > Preferences > Applications
Make sure that it isn't set to the Firefox application.
