Re: Firefox Tabs ?
If you want windows instead of tabs, do not check the box for "Open new windows in a new tab instead"

Re: Firefox Tabs ?
I'm not sure what the effect would be if you checked the second but not the first. What the second does is, if a link opens a new tab, if the box is checked, the tab becomes the active tab. If it's not checked, the tab opens but does not become active. I have no idea what happens if the link opens a window, though, because I prefer tabs.
Same with the third box. If you have that checked and use tabs, if you hover the icon in the taskbar, you would see thumbnails of your open tabs. If you are using windows, Windows (the OS) handles it differently.
In short, they don't really apply if you are using windows instead of tabs.
