Can’t open the Options menu in Tab Mix Plus? »

The first extension/add-on that I always install for Firefox is Tab Mix Plus! The tab switching allows me to switch between my current tab and a recent tab without “scrolling” through every tab.
For example, if I have 6 tabs open and I’m currently viewing Tab 3, I can hold down Ctrl and hit the Tab key to go to the tab 5 (and release.) To go back to Tab 3, I simply need to quickly hit “ctrl+tab” in one swift move and I’m back on Tab 3.
Recently, it stopped working and would just cycle through each tab in chronological order. Furthermore, I could not view the options menu for Tab Mix Plus. After much googling, I found the culprit:
SOLUTION: The Skype addon must have been recently updated because once I disabled it (and restarted firefox), everything worked fine!
Hope that helps!
