Firefox won't open some buttons or links in new tabs. I right click and go "open in new tab but nothing happens. Also, I cannot click the arrows to go forward or back in the top left corner, they are shaded gray.

This happened

Every time Firefox opened

== When firefox updated to 3.6.6

Start Firefox in Diagnose Firefox issues using Troubleshoot Mode to check if one of your add-ons is causing your problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Add-ons > Themes). See Troubleshoot extensions, themes and hardware acceleration issues to solve common Firefox problems and Troubleshoot issues with plugins like Flash or Java to fix common Firefox problems
