When I open a site by right clicking the link, and choosing open in new window, the address for the site does not show up in the location bar. It simply states, "Go to a Website" in the location bar. If I click the icon to the left of the location bar magically the URL for the site shows up. I'm running on Win XP SP3.

Start Firefox in Diagnose Firefox issues using Troubleshoot Mode to check if one of the extensions or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).
