<p>As John99 stated, that is the normal way that Firefox handles links. The setting in options refers to when links are coded to open in a new window, do you want a new window or do you prefer a new tab.
</p><p>In addition to the methods John99 listed, Ctrl+click opens a link in a new tab (nearly always; links intercepted by scripts can evade it).
</p><p>If you want ALL links to AUTOMATICALLY open in a new tab, you would need an add-on for that. I don't use it myself, but Tab Mix Plus has a very rich set of options for where to open links, bookmarks, etc. You can read more about it here:
</p><p><a href="https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/tab-mix-plus/" rel="nofollow">https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/tab-mix-plus/</a>
</p><p>As a footnote, Google has a search preference (<a href="https://www.google.com/preferences" rel="nofollow">here</a>) that codes results to open in a new window, so that's why I asked if you only noticed the difference on particular sites.

<p>It is possible that your security software (firewall, anti-virus) blocks or restricts Firefox or the plugin-container process without informing you, possibly after detecting changes (update) to the Firefox program.
</p><p>Remove all rules for Firefox and the plugin-container from the permissions list in the firewall and let your firewall ask again for permission to get full, unrestricted, access to install for Firefox and the plugin-container process and the updater process.
