Firefox 4 works properly. Its just that when I visit site as

http://www.jagoinvestor.com/ or Indiatimes.com....sinlung.com or any page which has Facebook like button. It automatically opens just the Facebook Page (link below) in a new Tab AUTOMATICALLY

I'm not sure if this a feature in Firefox 4 but its annoying. Further, this does not happen all the time. It usually happens on new sites that I visit. Facebook Link
