I have a couple of computers and on all of them IE opens a different
window each time I click on the program it self. I can view several
different pages at one time. How ever on one of my computers every
time I click on a link that would normally open a new window on my
other computers, this time it opens the page in the one screen that is
already open. I know that it can be made to work like my others but I
have no idea on how to do it. Can any one help
thanks.

Hi,
From IE> Tools> Internet Options> Advanced> Browsing> uncheck "Reuse windows
for launching shortcuts."

And... you may have a toolbar or program running which is blocking
pop-up windows- something like Yahoo toolbar, Google toolbar, MSN toolbar,
etc.
The Yahoo toolbar is a very common cause. Uninstalling the Yahoo toolbar
should allow a second window to open.

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