Firefox 4.0 inconsistantley opens new tabs, options are set to always open in a new tab.
Hi, I am new to firefox. I have it set up in a way I like I just have one issue. In the options I have Firefox set to open in a new tab, but most of the time I have to press the crtl key then click a link and it will open in a new tab. Most of the time if I do not press the crtl key the link launches from the same window. Is this just a Firefox bug?

I assume you are talking about the preference - Open new windows in a tab instead.
When a webpage is programmed to open a hyperlink in a new window that pref will divert it to a new tab instead. It doesn't affect hyperlinks that are intended to open in the same window; there's no pref for that. If you want every hyperlink to open in a new tab, you need to {Ctrl + Click} or Middle-Click (click on the mouse scroll wheel) - or look for an extension that adds that preference to Firefox.
