I cannor open a new tab when I use the command File/New tab or when I click on the X at the right of the tab bar or when I click right on the X then click left on the New tab command I've tried in other sessions, the New tab commands work. It looks like I have a problem with my settings.

Thanks for the quick reply. In the mean time I upgraded FF to FF4.0 and the problem seems to have disappeared. But I bookmarked your links, just in case.
