Hello all.

Firefox won't open links in new browser or if I hit Ctrl-N


Firefox won't open links in a new browser. You know, links that are external
won't open in a new browser. I have to right click and then hit tab to open
the link in a new tab.

The open in new window won't work on the file menu or the right click menu.

None of the bookmarks on the Bookmark toolbar will work. The one's that open
external browsers just show an hour glass.


Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.7.12) Gecko/20050915
Firefox/1.0.7 (ax)

Thanks in advance for any help.

Peace.

I see you're using active-X! Is this true? If so, then try and get
rid of that extension and maybe your problems will go away.

How do I do that?

Thanks.

Tools, Extension, and look for the active-x extension and disable or
remove it.
