I just upgraded to FF 4.0 on Win7 and I noticed that when you click a link and select 'open in new tab' it copies over the correct link to the address bar but doesn't open it.

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 > Themes).

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