Right click becomes double click in Firefox

The last few weeks I've been plagued by a problem I can't seem to fix: whenever I right click in Firefox it turns into a double click. This only happens in Firefox and has started happening just recently (maybe with latest update?) This happens with both my mouse and my Wacom table. And only seems to happen when the pointer is over a selection in the popup menu. If the pointer is on the edge of the popup menu I can then select an entry as normal. Any ideas on how to fix this? Thanks!

Hi there.

Have you tried in Safe Mode (http://kb.mozillazine.org/Safe_Mode#Mac_OS_X) to see if it's one of the affected settings or an Extension/Theme that might cause this? Do you have both input devices connected at the same time, and have you tried with just the mouse (from a cold boot)?

The last double click in Firefox turned out to be a fidgety mouse, but since you have a tablet that has the same issue, then this might be something else (SOP is to try another, known-good mouse).

Tried Safe Mode with no change in behavior. Will try rebooting with only one device connected when I get the time. Only reason I didn't think it was the devices is because they operate normally in all other programs.

Thanks!
