If you recently upgraded to Firefox 3.6.2 you probably noticed that the tabs don’t open like they used to. The used to open to the far right, now they open to the right of the current tab, if you’re like me you are probably always losing your tabs now.

While Firefox didn’t offer anyway to undo the insanity it is pretty easy to set straight.

In the address bar type

about:config

If you get a warning about voiding your warranty  click the “I’ll be careful, I promise” button just ignore it – it is computer geek humour

Look for (or start typing in the Filter bar)

browser.tabs.insertRelatedAfterCurrent

and double click it to change it from true to false

Close the tab (there is no need to click save it saves automatically)

Hope this gets you back on track and sorted.
