I can't click on icon at bottom of screen to open a new tab. Problem started when I rebooted my machine this am, and, firefox went through its check of add-ons and plug-ins. Now when I click on the icon, I see thumbnail of the webpage that is loaded but that is all that happens.

hello trader776, please try to unpin the firefox icon from the taskbar and then pin it again by right-clicking the entry in the start menu/desktop.
