You'll have to cut and paste the url from one browser window into the address bar of another browser window. There's currently no way of moving tabs from one window to another.
Apparently this feature will be in Firefox 3.1

Hey Vijay

            You can move the tab from one browser to anther by just dragging & dropping.

(NOTE:When you try to move the tab to another browser that has only one tab containing,your moved tab will replace the existing tab.

Or

If you try to move the tab from browser to anther that has more than 1 tab(say 2 tabs),your moved tab will become third tab and will be removed from the 1st browser.)

Hope you found this helpful.
Cheers

This feature is available in Firefox 3.0.8.I'm not sure about the previous versions.

I do apologise - I got that wrong :(

You *can* drag & drop tabs between windows.
