Something has happened to my internet explorer settings and I can't figure
it out. Whenever I open a second IE window it will replace my existing
window. This is very frustrating. Can anyone help me out? I have no idea
what changed to cause this to start happening.

Thank you,
Krista
 
Hi Krista :-)

You did mention what version of Windows you are running, or offer any
details of your problem, thus, I can only suggest you might try the
following and see if it helps:

Open Multiple Windows In IE

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.

Try these steps:
Open IE, tools, internet options.
Select Advanced tab and click the [restore defaults] button.
Later, select the Programs and click the [reset web settings] button.
Click OK.

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.
