As of yesterday - with NO downloads or updates to anything having been made - MSN.com opens Hotmail (when I click the link from that page) in a new window, not a tab. Any link in any email, however, opens in a new tab in the original window. When I og out of Hotmail, it returns me to MSN so the process gets repeated every time I start Firefox & it loads my normal set of tabs. Why has this suddenly started? How do I fix it (return to opening Hotmail in a tab)?

Same problem, but if you DO open it with the middle mouse button it DOES open in a new tab, not window. Generally when I use firefox it just opens the page, no new tab/window.

I'd love to blame it on MS since they so often 'tweak' their stuff (he said overly politely), but...
