Using Firefox 4 in Windows 7

I have customised the position of tabs (Tabs on top) and which toolbar items I would like to see.

The first window I open of firefox 4 always has the configuration as I set it.

Whenever I open a new window of firefox either:

  1. - Right-click a link to open in a new window
  2. - Click a link anywhere (such as an email) to open a new window
  3. - When a website opens a page in a new window

Bad Results:

  1. - The new window does not have the configuration as set in the main window (Tabs on top)
  2. - The new window has a windows type window frame around the firefox window (see two sets of window controls eg. "minimise", "restore" and "close")
  3. - The open page does not show the url - navigating to a new page within this window will not update the url :: strangely enough clicking the url page icon will update the url as it should be
  1. - Sometimes when restarting firefox, it will open the first main window with the remembered tabs and then open approx 8 or so blank new windows as described above

Screenshot 1 = main normal window (as it should be) Screenshot 2 = New window opened from right click "Open In New Window" on a google result page - nothing is loading on the page here it's just blank Screenshot 3 = opening maps.goole.com and the browsing to a new site (wikipedia) you can see the url address has not changed.


This is quite annoying as I can only use one window of firefox, as I would like to use it, the other new windows are not really functional and really buggy.

I have troubleshooted this issue and have found what I think is a resolution.

The cause of this issue seems to be Profiles.

Previously when running firefox 3 I had multiple profiles setup. when deciding to update to firefox 4 I removed these old profiles.

When installing firefox 4 for some reason it used a "default" named profile, and this caused the problems I described above.

RESOLUTION:

Ran firefox.exe -ProfileManager

created a new profile, it named itself "Default User" I then selected the new default and tested. The window behavior is now acting as it should wothout the above problems.

I deleted the old profile and now it works, using the new profile.

RESOLUTION UPDATE:

Refined to find the cause of this issue. It was not the Profile,

the cause was an addon called HTTPfox. Creating a new profile just removed the offending addon.

http://code.google.com/p/httpfox/

when installing this addon it breaks the firefox 4 new window functionality

when removing this addon it works fine

I am getting very similar behavior. I have disabled the suspect plugin, Tab Mix Plus, is there any other plugin that might be causing this? I am not using HTTPfox, this seems like an underlying API issue.
