When using facebook games I use ctrl and click on the get item and this would open a tab and I could open many tabs but now when I do it it opens a page and I am having to do it one at a time. This has only happened in the last few days. How do I solve this problem please? I have checked the settings and the box is checked for opening new tabs

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