I have been using firefox for a long time now because I love it's option of opening in a new tab while staying on the tab I am currently using.

Recently, over the last week or so, when I open a link using a new tab, the page doesn't load in the new tab. It's just thinks and thinks and finally shows that the page is open, but the page is actually blank.

Try the Firefox SafeMode.
A troubleshooting mode, which disables most Add-ons. (If you're not using it, switch to the Default Theme.)

  1. You can open the Firefox 4.0 SafeMode by holding the Shft key when you use the Firefox desktop or Start menu shortcut.
  2. Or use the Help menu item, click on Restart with Add-ons Disabled... while Firefox is running.

To exit the Firefox Safe Mode, just close Firefox and wait a few seconds before using the Firefox shortcut (without the Shft key) to open it again.

If it is good in the Firefox SafeMode, your problem is probably caused by an extension, and you need to figure out which one.

Thank you for the reply! I just tried safe mode and it hasn't changed. Still has a lag when opening a new window and/or it just goes to a blank page.

I did get on my laptop and try it there, works fine.

Thanks again!

Create a new profile as a test to check if your current profile is causing the problems.

See:

There may be extensions and plugins installed by default in a new profile, so check that in "Tools > Add-ons > Extensions & Plugins" in case there are still problems.

If that new profile works then you can transfer some files from the old profile to that new profile (be careful not to copy corrupted files)
