When i open a link in a new tab it does not load the page. I have to hit the Reload button. Is there a way to fix this?

Question says it all really.

When I click "Open link in new tab" or use CTRL+click it opens a new tab, but will not LOAD the page until I click reload.

Do you have that problem when running in the Firefox SafeMode?
A troubleshooting mode.
You can open the Firefox 4.0 SafeMode by holding the Shft key when you use the Firefox desktop or Start menu shortcut. Or use the Help menu item, click on Restart with Add-ons Disabled... while Firefox is running.
To exit the Firefox Safe Mode, just close Firefox and wait a few seconds before using the Firefox shortcut to open it again.
