I upgraded to FireFox 7 and now when I do a Google search the results no longer open in a new TAB. Worked fine with FireFox 6.

I've tried Bing and Yahoo searches, the results when opened do appear in a new TAB.

I've reinstalled Fire Fox 7, I've restarted my computer, I've reset my preferences in Google (many times) - problem stays
