Embedded e-mail addresses (mailto) does not work properly

This is a problem that has cropped up suddenly and, while not major, is irritating. If I click on an embedded e-mail address (such as answering say a Craigs List ad) Gmail opens a new tab and acts like it is going to open the Compose Mail form. In the upper left corder it says "Loading..." but it never does. I can see it connecting to mail.google.com, then it says down in the lower left "Done" as if it has finished loading the page. The page simply stays blank. If I copy the e-mail address and then go to Compose Mail from GMail directly, the proper compose form appears and I can paste in the e-mail address manually and send a reply. It used to be all I had to do was click on an embedded e-mail and GMail would take me directly to the Compose Message page. No changes to my system, so I do not think that is the problem and I HAVE emptied the cache and history, hoping that would help (it did not).
