Firefox keeps opening links as well as new tab
While browsing, if I long-click a hyperlink and select "Open in a new tab" from the ensuing menu, even though it opens the tab it also follows the hyperlink in the original tab. How do I prevent it from opening the link in my current tab?

Sorry, this seems to be an issue on some pages that have scripts connected to the links. The workaround in an earlier thread (for Gizmodo) was to slide your finger down a line or two after the menu appears so that when you lift your finger it is not on any link.
