Linux build 2001070421 Middle mouse click on a link or right mouse click/Open Link in new Window brings up a new window but always with www.mozilla.org .
Just comes to my mind: This worked with build 2001070321 as far as I remember the build ID correctly.
Most likely caused by patch to bug 73141.

Reassigning to alecf, as he's the owner of bug 73141. I'm not sure whether to mark this one a duplicate of bug 73141, so I'm leaving this open for now.

i suspect any attempt to open link in new window will now spawn the "homepage". Whether that be a blank page or whatever. (I get about:blank since i start with a blank page). Adding regression keyword.

Windows NT Version 4.0 ( Build 1381: Service pack 4) Build ID:2001070504 - DL'd 20 mins ago from latest confirm that right click on link opens to preferences initial startup default I suggest OS = all
Btw... it isn't just "likely" caused by patch for bug 73141 - it's most definately caused by it :) I backed out the change in my local build and opening links in new window then works like normal again.

I am now driving into work, and will arrive about 1 hour (10am PDT)... if this becomes a smoketest blocker (hopefully not, since we have a fix in hand) then someone needs to check this in...

8 Dups in 2 days should be mostfreq.
Why isn't this marked "fixed" already? Since alecf's checkin on the trunk, the problem has gone away. We'll only be getting dupes until all users use new nightlies. Maybe I should have changed the summary when marking this "new" to avoid some dupes. I don't see the need to add more keywords ...
