On certain sites, most notably Gmail, Firefox 4 will open a link in a new tab without clicking. If I open an email message that contains a link to an address, Firefox will automatically open a new tab with this address in Google Maps.

I have also noticed it on a couple of other sites, though where exactly escapes me at the moment.

Any ideas how to stop this?

Yes. This is very annoying. I use Gmail and same thing happens to me too! Also happens with youtube and picasa links. I have not found a cause or a solution to this so far.
