Firefox opens in duplicate when I click on an email web link, though not when I open Firefox direct.

I have an iMac with OS 10.5.8 and have Firefox set as my default browser. If I change to Safari, I don't have this problem.

I've found I can avoid it simply by control/clicking "Open link", rather than just clicking the link.

It's not the end of the world, just an annoying niggle.
