  Hi Rugger,

  Welcome to the community Microsoft and thanks for posting the question.

  This issue could be happen if system files have been corrupted or any third party application conflicts.

  I would suggest trying the following methods and check if it helps.

  Method 1:

  I suggest you perform a SFC Scan and check if it helps.

  Steps to perform a scan SFC:

  a. click Start, click principally made programs, Accessories, and open the command prompt.

  b. type the following command and press ENTER:

  sfc/scannow

  [The command sfc /scannow. analysis of all protected system files and replaces incorrect versions with appropriate Microsoft versions.]

  Once the scan is finished, close the command prompt window, restart the computer and check.

  Reference: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/929833

  Method 2:

  I suggest you perform a clean boot and check if it helps.

  Clean boot will check if any third-party application is causing the problem, as the clean boot helps eliminate software conflicts.

  Thanks for posting the details of your system. I'm skeptical about the "CompTool0234 Community Toolbar". Could you disable some add-ons and see if that helps.

  On this tab:

  Firefox orange (or the Tools menu) button > addons > Plugins category

  Disable «Conduit Plugin»

  On this tab:

  Firefox orange (or the Tools menu) button > addons > Extensions category

  Disable the CompTool0234 community toolbar.

  Then very probably a link will appear to restart Firefox to make the change. Does make a difference?

  Firefox does not open a new tab page, when I click on the small + firefox does not respanw, but if I use right mouse botton -> tab double as it opens a new tab how can I solve this?

  Uninstall the toolbar Ask and it should work again. There is a compatibility issue with the Ask and Firefox toolbar that prevents the opening of new tabs.

  There are a few places to check for the Ask toolbar:

  • Check the control panel Windows 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

  In Vista, the application is called programs and features.

  You can find it in the control panel.

  A faster way is to click on the Start button > in the search box, type programs and features > Enter.
