When I right click on the Firefox tab/icon in the taskbar, there is no option for me to open a new window or new tab. I am only offered the ability to Move, Size, Minimize, Maximize or Close Firefox.

That is the Windows System menu and is maintained by Windows XP.

You need to open Firefox to open a new tab or create a shortcut with the -new-tab or -new-window command line switch if you want to do that via the desktop.

Sorry, should have been clearer. I am trying to do this once Firefox is open/running. When I right click on one of the open Firefox tabs/icons located in the taskbar, the tasks of new window and new tab are not there.
