My middle mouse buttone will open from 1 to 4 tabs, all copies of the the same page on a single click.

It doesn't matter if i do a slow (10 sec) click or a fast click.

but on long clicks (if its going to malfunction) it will continue to open tabs as long as the mouse is held down. Other times it won't open the new tab until i let go.

I have this on all three of the computers i use computers (work and home) since 3.6

This happened

Every time Firefox opened

== 3.6

I've been experiencing this same problem with Firefox (3.6.6) on my work computer over the past couple days.

It seems to occur at random and I've had up to 3 tabs open with a single middle-click.

Very weird...

You either have a hardware or configuration problem with that mouse or a problem with an extension. You can try a different mouse and check the settings in Control Panel > Mouse

Excelent post cor-el.

I either have a hardware problem or a software problem. That about covers all the bases i think.

Also i can assure you i do not use the same mouse for all three of my computers so that leave out hardware.

I have found that my problem has gone away now.

Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 6.1; en-US; rv:1.9.2.6) Gecko/20100625 Firefox/3.6.6

The software that has changes so far is The OS WinXP/Vista to Win7, Ad Block Plus to Foof.

Ryan, Can you confirm if you are using Ad Block Plus?

NOTE: Personally i thought Foof sounded better then Ad Block Plus but i don't feel smarter for having it installed.

I do not have the Ad Block Plus extension installed.

I'll try a different mouse for the day, though, and see how it goes. It may just be the mouse in my case.

I was facing the same issue and eventually stumbled on this thread. Here's what I tried -

Go to Control Panel > Hardware and Sound > Devices and Printer > Mouse > Buttons

Here, reduce the double click speed.

Worked for me. However, I'm not 120% sure if it will work (since I have no theory to back this up, except first hand experience). Please let me know if or not it works for you.
