Random Tabs Created With Firefox and Duck Duck Go
I use Firefox as my Browser and Duck Duck Go as my Search Engine.
Sometimes, when my fingers go wonkers with the touchpad and the pointer; one of the tabs will develop a mind of its own and slide across the window to create a new page.
When I was using Google Chrome, I had to have my finger on the touchpad and slide my tab to the end, to create a new page.
But, now my tabs have a life of their own.
Previously, all I had to do was move to the new page and slide the tab to the far right or left and it would return to the previous window.
But that will not work for me since I have installed Firefox and DDG. I was assuming it was a problem with FF, but it might be DDG. The tabs stop at the end.
I can't return the tabs back to the previous window. Yeah, I can always read the content and then close out the new page, but that is not what I want to do. Especially, if I am referencing something and have to switch from one window to the next. It is annoying.
I have tried yelling at it, but that has not worked either.
Can I slide a tab to the side and return it to the original page, as I was doing in GChrome ?
Am I missing something ?
Or, am I stuck with the new page, when my fingers go wild ?
-----
By the way, is Opera better than Firefox ?
I have heard good things about it.
Apparently, they have a built in ad/ popup screener that FF does not have?
Are their any browsers that have built in virus protection ( except Windows and Defender) and built in ad/popup prevention ? It might be better than FF, which I think is better than Google Chrome.

Currently I am using Firefox, Duck Duck Go, Adblock Plus and Google Ghostery.
As well as CCleaner, Malwarebytes and Defender.
Is there anything better? Anything else I should consider?
Thanks
