cannot open tabs
I cannot seem to open new tabs when using firefox. I have tried clicking on the new tab button, right clicking and selecting new tab and have tried File, new tab and none of them will produce a new tab. However if I click on a website link in the current tab it will open a new tab. It just seems to be when I want to manually open a tab.

Uninstall the Ask toolbar and it should work again. There is a compatibility issue with the Ask toolbar and Firefox that prevents new tabs from being opened.
There are a couple of places to check for the Ask toolbar:
- Check the Windows Control panel for the Ask Toolbar - http://about.ask.com/apn/toolbar/docs/default/faq/en/ff/index.html#na4
- Also check your list of extensions, you may be able to uninstall it from there - https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Uninstalling+add-ons
