Summary: annoying bug with Firefox Beta 1 and 2

Comments:
With both the beta versions I noticed that often the browser stop to
open windows, both new windows related to links in the browsing windows
(i.e. target _blank and pop-ups) and windows opened by the menu commands
(i.e. "Options..." , "About Mozilla Firefox", etc).

In the first case, if it is a href link and not java code button or a
form, it is possible to overcome the problem using the right click and
the "open link in new window" command. Otherwise it's necessary to
restart Firefox.

I never experienced such a problem in the old versions, that I used
regularly since Firebird.

Anyway, Firefox remains the best browser! Good job folks!
