Some how I lost the capability to keep open multi Web sits. When I open one
it closes the other?

What setting is wrong?

Thanks
 
Hi John :-)

Try the following and see if any will help:

Cannot open more windows


Start/Run/CMD.

Type this command:

REGSVR32 URLMON.DLL.

Ok/Reboot.

also..

To keep more than one browser window open at a time, click File in the main
menu, select New, then Window. To close a browser window, click the X in the
top right-hand corner or select Close from the File menu. You can also open
a new browser window with Ctrl+N.

Select Advanced tab and click the [restore defaults] button.
Later, select the Programs and click the [reset web settings] button.

You may have a program running which is blocking pop-up windows-
something like Yahoo Companion, Google toolbar, a firewall, Earthlink (or
another) pop-up blocker, etc. You'll have to uninstall the program or turn
off the feature that's blocking new windows.

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

Hi John,

The Reuse windows for launching shortcuts setting is used to determine
whether a new or existing instance of Internet Explorer is used when
exploring a Web site using one of the following methods:

• Double-clicking an Internet shortcut (.url file) from within Windows
Explorer.
• Opening a URL by clicking Start, and then clicking Run.
• Using a desktop toolbar, such as the Address or Links bar.

When this setting is selected, an open instance of Internet Explorer is used
to display any Web site loaded using the above methods. If the setting is
cleared, then the above methods start a new instance of Internet Explorer.

Open Internet Explorer, Tools, Internet Options. In the Advanced tab,
uncheck the option "Reuse windows for launching Shortcuts."

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

Or it could be caused by spyware/parasites. Work through the solutions
