Why does Yahoo Mail close right after I open an attachment (pdf, jpg, Word, Excel, etc.) only on Firefox?

more options

Right after I open or save an attachment from Yahoo Mail while using Firefox, Yahoo Mail closes all of a sudden. This just started happening about 2 months ago, in June this year. I don't think I changed any settings.
