I can get images/links to load properly in other browsers, but if I do an image search on yahoo with Firefox, I will click a thumbnail, and the page changes to the pic. But, if I try to click the link to go to the actual page the image is on, the link doesn't work. I can click and click but a page doesn't open. And if I right click and choose Open Link In New Tab...it will just open the same thing I was looking at.

If you look at the above image, you will see a "preview". But if I click the link at the bottom "www.sports-logos-screensave...", it will just bring up exactly the same page as above. What can I do to fix this since it works fine in IE and Chrome...
