When I open a new site, it replaces a current tab instead of creating a new tab -- what should I do to correct this problem?

Until today, whenever I went to a new website, a new tab would be created on the toolbar. Today, everytime I open a new site, it replaces a current tab with a tab for the new site.

Are you using a bookmark? There is a little-known feature of bookmarks that can load them in Firefox's sidebar. This allows you to work with two pages side-by-side. To change that setting, right-click the bookmark > Properties, then uncheck the box for "Load this bookmark in the sidebar".
(You probably didn't set this yourself. If you use a link on a website to have the site add a bookmark to Firefox, due to restrictions on what sites can do, those will always be targeted toward the sidebar.)
If that's not it, have you noticed any pattern in when this happens?
