On the tab bar, clicking on + symbol doesn't open a new tab. Right-click on + symbol, then selecting New Tab, doesn't open new tab. Selecting File, New Tab, doesn't open new tab. Ctrl + T doesn't open new tab. Running W7. The problem doesn't occur with other browsers. Thanks for any suggestions.

There are a couple of places to check for the Ask toolbar:

Sorted! Thank you very much, TonyE. Uninstalled easily from Control Panel, New Tabs immediately returned.

Thanks again Iain
