Hi guys,
When i right click on a link in Firefox, i want to open it in another tab. But sometimes when i click, the menu doesnt pop up, but ¨automatically¨ i get one of these options: it opens the link in another tab (least annoying, cause that what i wanted to do in first place), or it opens the links properties dialog, or the save as dialog, or ¨mail to¨ using Thunderbird (most annoying). Anyone knows why is that?
Thank u,
Nelson

I have it too, and I think it happens if you don't right-click EXACTLY on the link.
After a couple of trys, it usually works.
Cheers
