User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.0; en-US; rv:1.9.1.5) Gecko/20091102 Firefox/3.5.5
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.0; en-US; rv:1.9.1.5) Gecko/20091102 Firefox/3.5.5

With Firefox 3.5.5 I seem to have lost the ability to right-click (create new tab for link).  I believe this appeared with 3.5.5 - I use this capability a lot and would have quickly noticed it.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.  Right-click a link on a web-page
2.  No menu appears

Right-click does work in other Windows applications - i.e., Internet Explorer and Windows Explorer
Actual Results:  
No menu (with choice for open in new tab) appears.

Expected Results:  
Should get right-click menu - including choice to open in new tab

I realize that W2k is not cutting edge - but this is enough of an annoyance for me that I very well might use other browsers.
