Safari automatically opening new tab when using left click on browser

Hi Experts,...
One strange issue I am facing for last 15 days , i.e, safari is automatically opening a blank page with tittle as "index of / " and its pointing to "http://www.digantdeals.com" website. Its opening automatically on new tab, page will appear almost times whenever I am clicking anywhere on browser.
Is this any malware issue..? How I can remove this .? ..I have installed "adblock" extension also but still its giving issue.
Please help..also please let me know if any antivirus software need to install on my macbook as its only one month old.
OS - Mavericks OS X version 10.9.4
Safari version 7.0.6

Appears to be malware. I would use thesafemac.com tools to remove it.

Can't open new tabs with double left click on tab bar in FF29.0.1?

I've always enjoyed how tabs work in FF, mainly with them being on the bottom (which I had to find a work-around for by making the userChrome.css file - the "about:config" modification no longer works) and also being able to double left click on the tab bar to create new tabs.
With the most recent update, double left clicking on the tab bar no longer has a function, and to create new tabs, I must now middle click. It's not a big deal really, but is there a way to change this back?
I searched through some options on the "about:config" page, searched "tab" and found an option there: "browser.tabs.opentabfor.middleclick" that seemed promising. I changed the value to "False" but it didn't change anything - in fact, middle clicking still creates new tabs.
I tried adding a modified function with "leftclick" in it, just to see if it might do anything but, nothing.
Any other suggestions for restoring the double left click function to create new tabs? Thanks!

If set to false, middle-clicking links on web pages opens them in a new window. It probably also affects bookmarks, history entries, and items in the address bar drop-down menu.

You need an add-on. Here are two I know about:
* [https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/classicthemerestorer/ Classic Theme Restorer]. In the add-on's option window, click the Special tab and check "Tabs toolbar: double click opens a new tab"
* [https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/tab-mix-plus/ Tab Mix Plus]. In the add-on's option window, click the Mouse icon, then the Mouse Clicking tab, then the Double-click tab below that. [http://tmp.garyr.net/support/viewpage.php?t=3&p=mouse-clicking The Tab Mix Plus help page] has more details.

Problem with opening new tabs, when I right-click on a link and open in new tab it doesn't automatically load up like firefox 3.6 always did. Is there anyway to fix this?

for example there's a link a friend sent me in my e-mail and I right-click on it, and select "Open in a new tab" it pops open like normal, except it does not load the page, I have to click the box and press enter to even get it to load it. In previous versions I have never had that problem, current version of Mozilla Firefox I am using is version 4, previous was 3.6 hope this helps figure this out.

You can middle-click a link to open the link in a new tab.
Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] to check if one of the extensions or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).
*Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.

Don't have "Open New Tab" when I right click an open tab after Firefox 18 upgrade

I used to be able to right click an open tab and one of the drop down options was to open a new tab. Where did it go?

You can also use this extension [https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/firefox-4-ui-fixer/?src=search UI Fixer] that adds back that option,amongst other ones,or this other extension that does just that [https://addons.mozilla.org/it/firefox/addon/new-tab-in-tab-context-menu/ New Tab in Tab Context Menu] .

Why does Firefox open new tabs when HOME is clicked?

I just upgraded to version 29.0 from a 4 year old version and I'm experiencing a problem that I can't imagine how to correct. I have two home pages set in my config, so that when I open firefox I get two tabs displayed. My Home Page field reads "https://www.google.com|https://news.google.com" When I open Firefox I get two tabs, one for Google and one for Google News.
On my old version, if I was in the first tab & navigated to www.hp.com and then later clicked HOME, Firefox would load that tab back to google. If I was in the second tab, it would navigate that tab back to google as well. The multiple Home page option was just a great help for initialization.
Now, regardless of what tab I'm in, when I click "HOME" Firefox opens two new pages, sets the first to my first home and the second to my second home and now I have FOUR tabs open. Click home again and I have 6 tabs, again and 8 tabs, etc.
There has to be a way to fix this. The HOME button is supposed to operate of the current focus, just as it does if you have a single home page specified.

Hi Stan, what both Ed and I are saying is that the first of your home pages should open ''in the current tab you're viewing'' -- the way you want -- because that's what happens for us.
Could you repeat the test in Firefox's Safe Mode? That's a standard diagnostic tool to deactivate extensions and some advanced features of Firefox. More info: [[Troubleshoot Firefox issues using Safe Mode]].
You can restart Firefox in Safe Mode using either:
* "3-bar" menu button > "?" button > Restart with Add-ons Disabled
* Help menu > Restart with Add-ons Disabled
Not all add-ons are disabled: Flash and other plugins still run
After Firefox shuts down, a small dialog should appear. Click "Start in Safe Mode" (''not'' Reset).
Any difference?

I can not right click "open in new tab" nor open in new window, in my bookmark file.the bookmarks are all there, but I have to open a tab first then left click to open an item. Why can't I right click? The options are there, but not highlighted/clickable.

Will not open new tab when clicked on the + next to open page

firefox does not open new window when I click on the new tab +
also does not open new tab when going through the file menu

This issue can be caused by the Ask.com toolbar (Tools > Add-ons > Extensions)

Since updating last time Firefox will not open new tabs unless I right click on a link. It won't open them via file or the tab at the top of the brwoser. Anyone know how to fix this?

Since updating last time Firefox will not open new tabs unless I right click on a link. It won't open them via file or the tab at the top of the brwoser or usinf ctrl + t. Anyone know how to fix this?

I can press ctrl for a new tab but otherwise a new tab does not open. I actually need help regarding this new Synch which apparently will be in Firefox automatically in an upcoming version so I am asking how that will synch with people who use LastPass-of course because I use this very successfully and really am not eager to change the set up that I have in place at this time.
I have read through endless FAQ trying to find anyone else who has this question or concern but have found nothing. Can you please tell me how that service will get along with LastPass which does basically the same thing as Synch-it is probably spelled wrong as it looks wrong to me but if I click back to where this issue began, I will lose all of this question so please respond for the upcoming service synch.

Safari slow opening new tabs

Hi,
After a fresh install of yosemite I noticed that safari is really slow (about a 3-5 seconds lag) opening new tabs, not everytime but most of the time (around 50%). This behavior also occurs when I focus the url bar.
It happens using the mouse and also using the keyboard shorcuts (⌘+T and ⌘+L respectively).
First thing I tried was disabling Safari Sharing on the iCloud settings but it didn't work. I also tried all of the usual suspects: deleting caches, cookies, reset safari, etc... As I said it happened from the first minute after a clean install of yosemite.
Any help would be appreciated. Thank you.

I have the exact same problem and it kills usability. I filed a bug with Apple on bugreport.apple.com (problem ID 1882855). Hopefully we'll hear from them.

Ipad air doesnt Open new tab when clicking on link

New ipad air when touch link on page doesnt automatically open new tab

To open a new Tab from a link press on the link and hold for a moment. You will get the choices, Open, Open in New Tab, Add to Reading List, and Copy. Choose, "Open in New Tab".

Wont open new tab when I click on it

When I click on the new tab it will not open at all. Right clicking on the new tab icon wont work either. I can open a new tab when I click on a link in a web page though.

I uninstalled the Ask.com toolbar and the problem was resolved.

I just updated to Firefox 17.0.1 and now I can't click on a bookmark to open it or open new tab when clicking new tab button.

In FF 17.0.1 I have several bugs to mention. I am only able to open bookmarks by right clicking them and selecting Open In New Tab from the drop down menu. I am unable to open a new tab by clicking on the new tab button or by clicking open new tab from the FF drop down menu at top of browser. Also, none button work in FF, such as Home, Back, Forward, or refresh. This is so aggravating!!

After I posted this, I restarted with add ons disabled and it worked..deleted a cpl of addons for compatibility checking and that fixed it.

Open new tab from any webpage, click any link on new tab, waits till the page is loaded and try to go back one page on new tab (arrow is disabled).

It happens whenever I open new tab from any wabpage. Once the tab is opened and initial webpage is loaded I may use any link to jump on another, second webpage in same tab. However, if I want to go back on initial webpage I can't do it cause that option (arrow) is disabled. I could use link on second webpage to jump on third, and only at that moment go back option becomes available again. However, I could not ever go back on initial webpage any more. As initial webpage has never existed.
It happens quite often (95%).

Right click the Back button and select the page you want to go back to from the list.
If the list is too long to display via the Back button, hit CTRL+H, change the view to "Last Visited" and then load it from there instead.

Firefox won't open new tabs when I click, also he doesn't open new tabs when I use CTRL+T. Any solutions?

When I want to open a new tab, firefox doesn't do it. The problem is the same when I use CTRL+T. So I can't open any new tabs.
Nothing seems to work: restart the pc, closing firefox,...

Uninstall the '''''Ask Toolbar'''''. It can cause that problem.
