I think that's in Tools->Options->Advanced->Tabbed Browsing.

Got a question about technology? Ask it here. Discussion of hardware, software, TiVos, multi-region DVDs, Windows, Macs, LINUX, hand-helds, iPods, anything tech related. Better than any helpdesk!
Nope. Doesn't say anything about scroll wheels.
Is "Select new tab opened from links" checked?
Select new tabs opened from links
When you middle-click on Web links (or hold down Ctrl while clicking with the left mouse button), the links will be opened in a new tab. That tab will not be shown directly; it will be loaded in a background tab. Check this option to load the link in a foreground tab instead, which will show that tab directly.
Also, check your mouse button properties to see if the scrollwheel click is still set the way you had it.
Can't advise you how to check that without more info. My desktop machine did it the default Windows way, then I installed a Logitech mouse, which uses it's own software to configure the device, and my Sony laptop does it a different way, with different software, that co-ordinates with the mushpad.

that is selected; and yet, it's not doing it. Mouse properties have the scroll wheel identified as a middle button. I don't understand! And yes, it's a Logitech mouse.
Okay, so while I was away this weekend the version of Firefox on my work computer stopped allowing me to open a new tab by clicking my scrollwheel. Does anyone know where I go to fix that?
It does that? ::clicks scroll wheel:: Neat!
Anyway, I'd advise uninstalling Firefox and delete the C:\\Program Files\\Mozilla Firefox folder (or is it a subfolder?? ::dodges ita's krav::). Reinstall Firefox and it should play nice.
Don't ask me how it got broken.
is it a subfolder??
Flux thinking, little Eddie, flux thinking.
It's the wave of the future.
You might want to try creating a new profile first (especially since if the profile is frelled, uninstalling won't help anyway).
I may be wrong, but I think that's what will be accomplished with deleting the Firefox folder only in a "nuke from orbit" kind of way.
Nope -- the profiles live in a different place entirely (presumably so that you can keep your settings when you upgrade).
Let's say you have two computers, and each computer can support two VGA monitors. Does there exist a KVA switch that can essentially handle four VGA inputs and select between them to output to two VGA monitors? i.e. the KVM switch would let you pick one of two computers, and then display both VGA outputs of the selected comptur to two VGA monitors?
In a semi-related question, is it worth the extra $ to buy a digital LCD monitor, as opposed to getting an analog VGA LCD montor (if all computers involved can output both digital and analog)? I think it is, but my bosses think not.
