Why won't my Firefox open new tabs?
My Firefox will only open new tabs if I click a link, which opens up another page.
It won't work if I click: - New Tab under File - the "+" button next to my present tab - ctrl+T - etc.
None of this works.

Uninstall the Ask toolbar and it should work again. There is a compatibility issue with the Ask toolbar and Firefox that prevents new tabs from being opened.
There are a couple of places to check for the Ask toolbar:
- Check the Windows Control panel for the Ask Toolbar - http://about.ask.com/apn/toolbar/docs/default/faq/en/ff/index.html#na4
- Also check your list of extensions, you may be able to uninstall it from there - https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Uninstalling+add-ons

Perfect, pity allowing access via valid userID and password was not as good, had to build a new registration as would not recognize the exiting
