Multiple Fast Flashing Tabs

I've been using Tor Browser for about a year on the average only a couple of days a month when I access torrent sites. Until now I haven't had any problems.

Now, when I load multiple tabs, even if I load them individually, a tab I happen to be on will start blinking fast and it will get the same thing going in the last tab I was on. It locks up the browser and adds in other tabs I try to go to. The only fix seems to exit Tor and start over again.

Here's what I've tried. 1.) Close the individual tabs by clicking on the X - Doesn't work. 2.) Close the tab using the right mouse then close tab. - This will close the tab, but won't stop the process. 3.) Since this is Firefox I've install addons uBlock Origin and AdGuard AdBlocker. Doesn't work.

Is this a bug or the result of an attack? How do I stop it? If I can't I'll have to go back to Chrome with no privacy.

I hope you can fix this.
