Right- click is completely disabled in FIREFOX (several versions) when browsing pages right-click mouse feature is completely disabled. Some access may be done via MIDDLE MOUSE to open new tab. but you cannot access any right-click featuring is this a command in firefox setup?

It works while clicking things like 'PERSONALS' but not in a browser window itself

This happened

Every time Firefox opened

== always in recent updates

Yes safe mode allows 'right click' I see when it updated it imported old 'addons' however it did not have these problems in the past I'll have to slowly remove them all and re-update them till I see the culprit thanks

It stopped the issue yes. But it will take time figuring out what addon or theme did it

probably one of those associated with 'browsing'

thanks for your help

I guess if not certain pages i can do in 'safe-mode'

The Yahoo toolbar extension is the most likely culprit, along with the AVG Search toolbar extension (it is made with the same broken code as the Yahoo toolbar extension) - but it could be another extension.

Kinda freaky when these programs add that and take the feature away :)
