Description

[Kristina Newhouse]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; U; PPC Mac OS X 10.4; en-US; rv:1.9.0.11) Gecko/2009060214 Firefox/3.0.11

Always, I have been able to choose between tabbing and selecting a new window. Now I cannot get a new window at all. It started a few days ago with an "auto-update". Figuring that the software might have gotten corrupted, I loaded the newest browser, but the problem is not solved.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Select new window
2. nothing happens
3. must quit Firefox to open a new window


Expected Results:  
Open a new window

There have not been any crashes or freezing. I can still move between tabs or go to bookmarked content on a tab

Try comment 1 first and if it doesn't still happen.  Try disabling your extensions one by one until you find the culprit.
