I prefer NOT to use "tabs" but have all new web pages I open come up in new windows...

I just downloaded the newest version of Firebox and I don't like the tabs feature. Every time I click on a link within a web page or do anything else that takes me to a different web page, please open a new window.

Links that you click on a web page should open in the same tab or in a new window if you deselect:

  • Tools > Options > Tabs: [ ] "Open new windows in a new tab instead"
