I cannot create new tabs

none of the methods to create a new tab work. I try ctrl t, clicking on the new tab button and under file new tab and none of these work.

The Ask Toolbar is causing that in the Firefox 3.6.13+ versions. Uninstall that extension.

There are a couple of places to check for the Ask toolbar:

Check the Windows Control panel for the Ask Toolbar - http://about.ask.com/apn/toolbar/docs/default/faq/en/ff/index.html#na4
Also check your list of extensions, you may be able to uninstall it from there - https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Uninstalling+add-ons
