My tabs won't open with the "Open a new tab button" or CTRL + T. If I right click I can open a link in a new tab, but not open a blank one.

I click the new tab button and it does nothing. Even the + next to the current tab yields no result. I just have no way to open a new blank tab.

The Ask Toolbar is causing that in the Firefox 3.6.13 version. Evidently something in that extension isn't compatible with a Firefox security fix. Disable that extension or un-install it.

I have also just had this problem and un-installing the Ask toolbar has done the trick straight away :D Thank you!
