I have set up the option in FF4 to open links in new tabs, even if the default of the website is a new window. Lately, even when I right-click-->open link in new tab the link opens in a new window. Is there a way to force FF to respect the new tab setting?

The problem started after installing the google voice extension, so I tried uninstalling it, but to no avail...

Thanks! Turns out the google update extension ( google update 1.3.21.65) caused that behaviour...
