    Kind of a stupid question, but its been driving me nuts. I used to be able to right click on the home button in Firefox and open it in a new tab, but since I've gotten a new computer the option seems to have disappeared. How do I enable this? I can right click any link or favorites icon and do this, but not my home icon.

    i never could. i can open it in a new tab with holding ctrl, though. did you had some addon installed that silently added that feature? something like tabmix plus or what ever (don't know, but i guess it's some tab-enhancing addon that adds this..)

    Open in new tab has always been middle-click by default.
