How can i get my old firefox back?
I don't like this new blue one and didn't ask for it, it was suddenly there. Besides, it has some really peculiar behaviour. As an example, right at this moment I have 5 firefox tabs open. The first one is a question on your forum. When I clicked the 'ask a question' link at the top of the page, it opened the next page in a new tab. And when I clicked the search button on that page, it opened another tab again. That tab asked me what product I want support with and opened another tab with the next page. And yet 10 minutes ago it was working properly. It keeps doing this, suddenly changing it's mind on how it opens new pages. Also, I can be scrolling down a page using the scroll wheel on my mouse, then suddenly it stops scrolling and starts making the page larger or smaller instead. Why does it keep changing it's mind on what it's doing? Really don't like this new browser and would appreciate it if I could get my old one back which worked perfectly well and really didn't need upgrading.

It is possible that some of the status keys and possible other keys have the wrong state and Firefox sees them as still pressed.
Try to press all the status keys (Shift, Ctrl, Alt) a few times to see if that helps to recover from this. If it doesn't help then close and restart Firefox or reboot the computer.
You can look at the Classic Theme Restorer extension to restore some functionality that was lost with the arrival of the Australis style in Firefox 29.
- Classic Theme Restorer: https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/classicthemerestorer/
- You can check out the settings of the CTR extension via its Options/Preferences button on the "Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions" page.
- You can find extra toolbar buttons and more toolbar settings in Customize (3-bar Firefox menu button > Customize)

Thanks for your response Cor el, I'll try that the next time it happens, it's completely random. One moment it functions normally then suddenly it changes its mind. Restarting my pc usually brings it back to normal until next time. One thing I've noticed, but not 100% sure there's a connection here.....I edit my websites online and log into cpanel which opens new pages in separate tabs, as it should do. It seems that this problem occurs when I'm logged into cpanel...if i'm logged in then open a new tab for regular browsing of other sites then all links on those sites also open in new tabs. Ican't say for sure if it's always only happened when logged into cpanel, but certainly on the last 3 occasions. At the moment it's behaving normally so much I can do to check your suggestions, but will try them the next time it occurs. One other thing I forgot to mention too....since i've had the new firefox, I've noticed that when I log into yahoo and post comments, I often find myself having to log on for each new post. Everything was fine with old firefox and there have been no other changes to my pc .
