I don't what's going on but suddenly when I click on a link it'll open in another tab instead of just going to where I clicked. I have no idea how or why this started happening and I'd like for it to stop. It seems to be doing it no matter what site I'm on and it's happening in both FF and IE. I don't remember clicking anything that would cause this.

How do I fix this? If I want to open a link in a new tab I'll do it myself. I don't need it to do it for me.

Have we all gone mad? Have we lost our minds? What used to be wrong, we say that is right.

- I don't know if this will help or not, but in my FF under preferences I have a section in Browser called Link Behaviour, check those settings.

Try: Tools > Options > Tabs

Another idea: Since this is happening in both browsers, your control key might be stuck. Try pressing it a few times to try unsticking it and see if that fixes your problem.

- Tools is one place it might be found, the other is under Edit ->perferences ->browser->link behaviour.

I restarted my comp and apparently it's fixed now. Thanks anyway, guys.
