After using firefox for a while, while creating a new tab, firefox will not allow me to click on anything on any of the tabs. I'm able to create new tabs and type URLs within any existing tabs or create new ones within that window. Pages will load but I will not be able to click on any links on any page. I can create a new window, and everything will work fine on the new window while the old windows will still not let me click on items in the page.

Start Firefox in Safe Mode {web link} by holding down the <Shift> (Mac=Options) key, and then starting Firefox.

A small dialog should appear. Click Start In Safe Mode (not Refresh). Is the problem still there?

While still in Safe Mode,

In the address bar, type about:crashes<enter>. Note: If any reports do not have BP- in front of the numbers/letters, click it to submit them.
