Links are set to open in new tab, not current tab. However since update to FF 14, they open in current tab. How can I change this back?
I would like links I click on to open in a new tab, not the current tab. In the Tools>Options, I have it set to do this. However, since the update to 14.0.1, I can't get it to open in a new tab. This is for all web sites and email. What can I do to change it? Thanks.

Try in Firefox's safemode, by for instance holding keyboard Shift when you start Firefox.
it is possible some combination of add-on extensions are causing the problem.
If that does not help consider using the new reset feature from the troubleshooting page:

Thank you John99. I used a combination of your suggestions above. The "Reset Firefox" worked the best, after I did a System Restore! Thanks for your help.
Glad it is fixed.
Thanks for posting back. If you find out what the change was that caused the problem no doubt you will let us know.
