When clicking with the middle button on html links nothing wrong, the link is followed in a new tab, everything's fine. But clicking on a picture with no html links follows a 'random' link in the current tab (grrr). In fact the 'random' site searched is for example www.urghl.com if one has selected the text 'urghl' somewhere in the window. Microsoft Windows is not affected by this phenomenom. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Select (highlight blue) some text in the google homepage 2. Click with the middle button on the google picture (which isn't linked to an html page) 3. Actual Results: If the text selected is 'string' you will land on www.string.com Expected Results: NOTHING
