Left clicking (only) on a link NOW causes a new window to open. I have made NO changes to my settings and NOW this happens every time.

Not only that, the new window leaves the "bookmark toolbar" blank.

I looked at my settings and it says to open links in new tab (was already set that way).

I want to open links in either the current tab or a new tab (or as the site directs). New tab is preferable.

That is what should happen. Try a right click for the option menu.
