Hi Terry,

Did you set Firefox as your default browser? You can do that in Firefox but you want to set the system default too. Open the 'Program Access and Defaults' via the Start button or Control Panel and you can set both Firefox and Thunderbird as your default browser and mail client/news reader.

In Firefox it's - Tools > Options > Advanced > General > System Defaults.

Have you got any Link or Tab related extensions installed that could effect default behaviour like Tab Mix, Linky etc?
