Whenever I'm reading an article (from Cnet, WSJ or other) and I want to use the send the article to a friend via email or share on facebook, I click the appropriate tab and a new page comes up. But it is the Search bookmarks and history page and not a blank email type page. This has happened repeatedly. I read the tip about the amount of cashe storage and cleared that, but it still occurs.

I have this and, I believe, a related problem since the upgrade. When I select a "share on facebook" and it opens a secondary (smaller) window, the window displays but is completely non-functional. I cannot scroll, enter information, etc. All I can do is close it. This has happened on various sites with exactly the same result.

When I try this in a Facebook app to share with my friends it opens a secondary window with an Error. All I can do si close it. But this is working perfectly with the previous version of Firefox and with: Chrome, Opera, Explorer and Safari!!!!
