When clicking on any link which opens a new window, Firefox will do nothing when I click on the link. Then, if I close Firefox, I cannot open it again as it says something along the lines of "Firefox is already running on this computer."

I read that this may be a Java issue, but I have installed the latest version of Java AND the latest version of Firefox.

This issue occurs on any website in which a link opens a new window (for example, when on ebay, clicking the "enlarge" button beneath the photo on a listing).

Start Firefox in Diagnose Firefox issues using Troubleshoot Mode to check if one of your add-ons is causing your problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Add-ons > Themes).

See Troubleshoot extensions, themes and hardware acceleration issues to solve common Firefox problems and Troubleshoot issues with plugins like Flash or Java to fix common Firefox problems
