I hate tabs; how can I disable them permanently in Firefox 3.6.9?
It appears that someone decided to mandate tabs in Firefox 3.6.9. A Google search of 'disable tabs Firefox' shows page upon page that reflect many users' dislike of tabbed browsing. Count me amongst them. If possible, please suggest a workaround, a setting, or an update to the add-in that will banish the tab 'feature' forever.

You can do that with the Tab Killer addon, available from http://piro.sakura.ne.jp/xul/_tabkiller.html.en
Thanks, Tony. I'm a little hesitant to use this because of some scary disclaimers on the author's site. Unfortunately, his release notes don't have dates, so there's no way to tell how recently the add-on was updated. I'll try to contact him next week to learn if this has been rewritten for 3.6.9 compatibility.
You can come a long way with setting some Firefox prefs or use specific sequences.

Open links in a new window by holding down Shift and left-clicking a link.
Links that do not specify a target window open by default in the current tab.
A link or bookmark opens in a new tab if you hold down the Ctrl key and left-click or by middle-click a link.
Holding down the Shift key in addition toggles loading a link in the background.
