The Ask Toolbar is causing that in the Firefox 3.6.13+ versions. Evidently something in that extension isn't compatible with a Firefox security fix. Disable that extension or un-install it.

How do I "disable" or "un-install it"?

I do not have the Ask toolbar and I am having the same problem -- I cannot open a new tab no matter how I try to open it. This just started yesterday afternoon -- 3/31/11.

Start Firefox in Diagnose Firefox issues using Troubleshoot Mode to check if one of the add-ons is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).

  • Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.
