That sounded great to me, and I've always really wanted this to work, so I tried it. Same as always. No matter what I set in Firefox's advanced section, links in TBird ALWAYS open in a new Firefox window. Do other people seriously have this working (without the above-mentioned extension)? I'm using the FC3 packages, nothing special or custom, but no matter what I do, links from TBird never start a new tab in the existing FF window.
