trying to open a file and all i get is hundreds of "New Tabs" across top of toolbar
when I sign into firefox by clicking the firefox icon Yahoo opens and when I go to a file I have on the desktop it doesn't open but I get a constant flow of "New Tab" sliding across the top of the screen

You get tabs opening endlessly if you select the Firefox program to handle a file when you get an "Open with" dialog.
You can rename (or delete) the mimeTypes.rdf file in the Firefox profile folder to reset all file actions.

You can use this button to go to the currently used Firefox profile folder:
- Help > Troubleshooting Information > Profile Directory: Show Folder (Linux: Open Directory; Mac: Show in Finder)
