Hello revealedsouleven,

Would you please do this :

Type in the address bar about:config and press Enter (promise to be careful, if asked)

Type in the search bar and look for the preference :

browser.link.open_newwindow.restriction

and change its value to 0 (zero)

Then close and restart Firefox.

I hope that does what you want .....
