I can't open more than one browser page at a time! where do I change the
settings?

Go to Tools | Internet Options | Advanced.
Uncheck "Reuse windows for launching shortcuts".
(http://support.microsoft.com/?id=241911 "Description of the Reuse Windows
for Launching Shortcuts Setting in Internet Explorer 5.01".)

Also, if you have Yahoo Companion, Google toolbar, MSN toolbar, a firewall,
Earthlink (or another pop-up blocker) My IE2 (a shell for IE) etc.
Yahoo Companion is a very common cause.

You'll have to turn off the feature that's blocking new windows or, perhaps,
uninstall the program (especially uninstall Yahoo Companion).

With some programs of this type, using Ctrl+click or Shift+click will allow
a new window.

If you're sure that another program isn't causing this, these links may
help.
