tabs close while on the page, and reopen separately. I need them to remain open, in the order I have them. May have something to do with lifting my mouse while copying and pasting.

If you 'drag' a tab out of the current window, it open in a new window. Could this be the problem?

Security Issue: Update your Flash Player Note: Windows users should download the active_x for Internet Explorer. and the plugin for Plugin-based browsers (like Firefox).

Note: Windows 8 and Windows 10 have built-in flash players and Adobe will cause a conflict. Install the plugin only. Not the active_x.

Flash Player Version: 23.0.0.162 Flash Player (Linux) Version 11.2.202.635

https://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/ Direct link scans current system and browser Note: Other software is offered in the download.

Maybe you're triggering tear-off tabs and inadvertently opening the new windows?

Here's an extension that allows you to disable that feature. https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/bug489729-disable-detach-and-t/
