As stated, when I open a new tab everything freezes until I move my mouse. When I stop moving the mouse, the new tab freezes again ergo, I have to keep it going around in circles until it opens!

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).

Do you have a mouse gestures extension installed?
One of those has been causing a problem like that for some users.
