Firefox middle mouse button

Ok I FINALLY got lots of things working on my laptop, namley - everything (many thanks goes out to d11wtq).

The last problem that I have is that when I am using firefox if I try to tap-to-click anywhere in the firefox window it acts like I pressed the middle mouse button and does crazy things like opening up websites that I have never seen before. I want to disable it as the middle mouse button and make it the primary mouse button. IRC was no help and a google search turned up nothing. Anyone else ever have this problem?

edit: this is on ubuntu

That used to happen to me all the time on my desktop pc with a bad mouse. Just disable the function that opens links on middle click.
