While working several new tabs can be opened and rendered active. Why?
Something is opening new tabs and windows in Firefox and making them active. I suspect the cookies. I tried 2 methods to remove all cookies. They reappear. I have reset Firefox. I deleted all the cache. I have run tests of Zonealarm and PC Matic.
Thus, three questions.
There's something in the registry of the cause?
Someone got this and find out what caused it?
How can I delete all cookies?
Thanks for your time.
Keith

When I clivk the + sign on the tabs toolbar or select NEW TAB on the file menu, a new tab will not open if I select fire fox Help menu help, a new tab open and I can then go to my home page and use as usual, since the update to 3.6.15
The Ask toolbar is originally only in versions of Firefox 3.6.13 +. Obviously something in this extension is not compatible with a Firefox security patch. Disable this extension or uninstall it.

As far as I KNOW, there is HTML code specific opening in a new tab, as it is to open a new window. Please enlighten me if this is something new to HTML5 that I haven't read.
Now, Firefox has a preference in Options > tabs to open new windows in a new tab instead - you have this pref checked?

If I press ctrl + t to make a new tab, the new tab load a bing search bar. Why? Why isn't there a blank window? When I open the new tab, the cursor is moved in the address to the search bar bar. It is inefficient to me, because I know the site I'm looking and haven't really needed to search. Is there a way to change this? It actually discourages me to use FireFox and I prefer just to solve this problem.
You have sort of a Bing extension or an extension 'search help' installed, what has changed the new blank tab to Bing.

I can't open new tabs. The new tab button, new tab in the file menu option and the new tab option when I right click on the tab all do not work. It started when I updated Firefox yesterday. It becomes annoying when you try to work with several tabs open. How can I fix?
Try to uninstall the Ask toolbar and it should work again. There is a compatibility issue with the Ask toolbar and the current version of Firefox.

Hello
Sorry to hear what happens if you run firefox in safe mode?
"If Firefox is open, you can restart Firefox Safe mode in the Help menu:
- Click the menu button
click Help
then select restart with disabled modules.
If Firefox does not work, you can start Firefox in Mode safe as follows:
- On Windows: Hold down the SHIFT key when you open the desktop Firefox or shortcut in the start menu.
- On Mac: Hold the option key during the startup of Firefox.
- On Linux: Exit Firefox, go to your Terminal and run firefox-safe-mode
(you may need to specify the installation path of Firefox for example/usr/lib/firefox)
When the Firefox Safe Mode window appears, select "start mode safe."
If the problem is not present in Firefox Safe Mode, your problem is probably caused by an extension, theme or hardware acceleration. Please follow the steps described in the section Troubleshooting extensions, themes and problems of hardware acceleration to resolve common Firefox problems to find the cause.
To exit safe mode of Firefox, simply close Firefox and wait a few seconds before you open Firefox for normal use again.

When I open a new tab, I no longer get a blank page. Instead, this link opens automatically.
Search.conduit.com/?CTID=CT3319766 & octid = EB_ORIGINAL_CTID & SearchSource = 69 & CUI = & SSPV = & Lay = 1 & UM = 2 & UP = SPBE0988F4-A2BC-4595-B005-51E70B9E0B94
I have nothing to make this change and I do not recognize. I fear that my computer may have a virus, so I will do a scan.
How can I remove the link above and stop appearing when I open a new tab? I want just a blank page.I've seen a shield of unknown virus type icon in my system tray, so I toss it and he said 'Protect research.' I didn't install myself, I install a program must have given me a virus. Research Protect is made by Conduit. I uninstalled search shelter in my control panel and delete the search folder protect program (x 86). Open Firefox and open a new tab.
Research conducted is not more.
I didn't know it was a virus all this time. Thank you for your comments, everyone! I think I took care of him.

When I open a new tab (Virgin, leave a link), it opens on the far right of the tab bar. This does not work for me because when I open a new tab, I use it immediately, so I would be to appear adjacent to the tab I'm currently using. I've scoured the forums and support without finding a way to change the position of new tabs.
NOTE: When I say 'new tab', I'm average NEW tabs - the kind that contains the new tab page, created using CTRL + T, or file-> new tab not tabs opened from links. I am stressing this point because I found a lot of questions and answers on how to make links open in a new tab open on the far right, or next to the active tab by changing the value in browser.tabs.insertRelatedAfterCurrent in all: config.
The Tab Mix Plus extension seems to have this feature, pictured in the screen shot here: http://tmp.garyr.net/help/#Events_-_New_Tabs
