I noticed this with xfce and didn't have this functionality with gnome so I think it's related to xfce. When middle clicking not on a link in firefox, it tries to go to the contents of the clipboard. How to disable that?

IIRC this is about:config middlemouse.paste option in Firefox.

Thanks, that solved it. Actually middlemouse.contentLoadURL needed to be toggled.
