I can't open new tabs.

Hey so basically I can't open new tabs when I'm browsing unless a website automatically opens a tab, for example if I click a link. The little plus button just blinks at me when I click it and nothing happens. I am able to open new windows when browsing but this is a huge inconveniance. I have no idea what to do.

Uninstall the Ask toolbar and it should work again. There is a compatibility issue with the Ask toolbar and Firefox that prevents new tabs from being opened.

Done, dusted works like a charm.
