Running Win Vista, and recenctly got latest update to firefox for my Dell Inspirion. Now when I click to add a new tab, nothing happens. Right click, and I get the menu box, but I click on new tab and nothing happens. I opened Explorer, and was able to open a new tab just fine. If I want to open another browser, I have to open a whole new window. Please let me know if I neede uninstall and reinstall Firefox. I've rebooted serveral times, and running a virus scan tonight.

Uninstall the Ask toolbar and it should work again. There is a compatibility issue with the Ask toolbar and Firefox that prevents new tabs from being opened.

Don't you hate it when it's that easy and you missed it? I see the toolbar I downloaded was powered by Ask.com, but it was actually for Crowdstar a company who makes games for Facebook. Namely, the It Girl game. One more reason I'm hating this game and Crowdstar. Hope this helps other Firefox users. And yes, I fully embrace my dorkiness for playing a game called It Girl.
