After I upgraded firefox to the 3.6 version, my right mouse button stopped showing the pop-up window to use the copy, paste, etc, commands.

I installed an older version again but the problem is still there. So... I tried the 3.6 version one more time and no change.

I really need to have my right mouse button working since I do a lot of copy & pasting in my work.

BTW, the button does work on any other pc application and on IE Only when using firefox browser it does not work.

Please read the Diagnose Firefox issues using Troubleshoot Mode to start Firefox in safe mode. Once you have done that, go to any page you like and right click. If it works, it's an addon problem.

If it's an addon, exit Safe mode and restart Firefox, then go to Tools, then Addons. Then go and disable all of them manually, and enable each one at a time to figure out what the problem is. Once you find the addon that is affecting this, try to look in it's options for a setting to change this.
