I tried to click on a website's email link and all of a sudden FIREFOX went crazy, loading in hundreds of empty tabs. I quit FIRE FOX by going into Microsoft word and accessing Force Quit Application from there and then force quit FIREFOX. I couldn't access force quit unless in a different program. Then I went back to FIREFOX and same thing happened, over and over. I cleared my cache for today, the whole day, but it didn't help. what do I do. I am a MAC user with OS 10.5.8 and am using FIREFOX Ver. 3.6.3

This happened

Every time Firefox opened

What program do you have selected for handing "mailto" Content Type? Can't be Firefox, or you'll have that problem.
