When I double click on an email in my outlook.com email inbox, Firefox typically, but not always, opens multiple windows - up to 6. As I shut down these windows in turn, more windows pop up. It's like fighting a Firefox monster. The same problem does not appear in Internet Explorer. Does anyone have a fix for this please?

You get tabs opening endlessly if you select Firefox as the application to handle a file when you get an "Open with" dialog.
