Have set the tabs under options clicking the first 3 items. I was getting the tab bar to work with these settings but suddenly now every new page is under one tab. FF seems to be very unstable under Win 7 Ult. Its OK under Win XP sp3 Home.

This happened

Every time Firefox opened

Hello Lyn.

I don't really understand the nature of your problem, but it sounds like some extension is causing an issue. Try running Firefox in safe mode to see if it fixes the issue. If it does, disable on extension at a time to see which one it is. Then disable it for good and contact its author for support.

At the moment, I'm running Firefox on Windows 7 Ultimate and it's as sable or more so than in Windows XP, so it's not something common, rest assured.

How do I run F.Fox in the safe mode? Ver 3.6.3 OS Win 7 Ult

I have the tab bar but every new page cancels out the first page.

Example; I open F. Fox with my emails and a tap is in the top L/H tab bar. Opening any other page will also be place in the same tab window and the original has to be re-loaded.

As a solution for your problem (now I understand it), you can:

- middle click links to open them in new tabs; - right click links and select "Open Link in New Tab" to open them in new tabs; - open a new tab prior to opening a new link or doing a search or typing something new in the location bar - press ALT+ENTER instead of ENTER when you type something in the location bar or search bar to open the result in a new tab - go into Tools > Options > Tabs to configure Firefox to open new links wherever you like.

Hopefully this is the answer you're looking for.
