Why am I limited to 3 tabs on Firefox 4

My tabs have no place to select a new tab. I simply double click next to the tab (there is no + sign). I am also limited to only 3 tabs. Please tell me what I can do to open more than tabs and Is there any way to add a + sign at the end of each tab so click rather than just clicking along the bar? Note I have downloaded version 4 three times to see if a reinstall would solve this problem .

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

  • Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.
