When trying to apply to jobs or respond to adds my firefox 4.0.1 just continuously opens new tabs until i am forced to manually shut down my pc , this was true in earlier versions of firefox also. I am forced to keep internet explorer and run their browser whenever their is a chance i may need to correspond and attach a resume. If i have an actual e-mail address from the employer i can avoid starting explorer by going to my e-mail inbox , but if i am given only a link to apply to i have to shutdown firefox and run explorer. I just don't get it , firefox is brilliant and i do not care to run explorer at all , can anyone help me ??

Firefox repeatedly opens empty tabs or windows after you click on a link

After deleting the mentioned file and restarting firefox the issue was resolved, thank you so much for the help, and figuring out what it was that had me stumped.
