Thunderbird occasionally opens links in Firefox; some open, most do not. Each click on a link produces a new Firefox.exe in Task Manager, Win. 7.

I have tried all suggestions in articles relating to 'links in Thunderbird not opening in Firefox.' None of them work.

The issue is, one link will usually open if it is the first time I click a link in Thunderbird. After that I cannot open any links to Firefox, and each click on a link in Thunderbird (including the first one) produces an additional firefox.exe in Task Manager (see image). Each of these Firefox iterations are generally 49,000+K. They do not seem to interfere with Firefox's operation.

I also cannot right click to 'open link in browser.' Only copying link location and pasting it into the browser is working for me. this has been fairly recent with the last two upgrades to Thunderbird.

Any suggestions?

Check your Firefox setup. Thunderbird hands the link to Firefox. How Firefox handles it is in the Firefox options.

What do I need to check within Firefox? I have looked under options. Is it a config issue?

This is a Thunderbird forum but there should be an option to open in a new or existing window or tab. You might ask over in the Firefox forum for more details.
