prior to downloading version 2 of firefox, i was able to use the tab button to go to the next field of a form, link, email, etc. i was also able to use to the control + c, v, x, a buttons to copy, paste, etc. both buttons are unresponsive. this is frustrating, annoying, and time consuming. anyone know how to reverse this?

Reproducible: Always

Sorry, marked the wrong bug.  Reopening.

This one is almost certainly a dupe too, though, but of a different bug.  Perhaps related to accesskey changes and/or tab problems after accesskey activation?
