For those of you who have installed (updated to) the new Firefox 3.5 and have problems with using the right click (the contextual menu not showing up) the solution to fix this is to get rid of the Yahoo Toolbar.

From my brief experience with it on Windows (Firefox 3.5 is not available yet in the Ubuntu repositories for an automatic update) it seems to have a better load time for web pages, especially for those involving lots of JavaScript.

For a list of improvements and new features (including the new HTML 5 standard) you can go here.

UPDATE: As 570n3r said in his comment, AdBlock+ has the same effect. Disable it too.

CODE EXAMPLES: When you want to include source code or terminal output, please use the the following tags like in the next example:

    [language]
    code lines
    [/language]

where you substitute language with the programming laguage used throught the code example (for terminal output that would be bash), e.g:

    [bash]
    /usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/bin
    [/bash]
