When you select Quote or Post Reply, instead of right clicking, click the scroll wheel on the mouse instead.
This will open Reply to Thread in a new tab and you can do you research in the original tab without loosing the reply text, makes it easy to cut and paste from one page to another too.
This is useful anytime you want to follow a link (tangent) but don't want to loose your original place.
I run Firefox under Ubuntu on my PC and Firefox under Windows 7 starter on my notebook. I just tried clicking the scroll wheel in (gag) Internet Explorer and it works there also.
A) RIGHT click?
B) Scroll Wheel?
I do not do A nor have B.
What does A do differently from a left click?(or do you have the mouse buttons reversed)?

You did not need to explain the 'scroll wheel'. I simply do not use an 'attached' mouse. Touch pad and two buttons on a laptop.
Ah yes, the right click gives one many options to choose from.
