It works fine on the 32 bit laptop but on the 64 bit desktop I usually have to try twice to get the page to open. It seems to work fine if I "Open Link in New Tab" just not a new window. Both computers run Vista and run FF5.0.

Start Firefox in Diagnose Firefox issues using Troubleshoot Mode to check if one of the extensions is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).
