I have Windows XP, using Internet Explorer 6. I have
several applications that use a browser window. When I
open the first one, everything's ok. When I open the
next one, it uses the first browser window instead of
starting in it's own browser window. How can I get each
app to start in a separate browser window. I don't have
this problem on my Windows 2000 pc.
 
Hi Loni,

1. Open Internet Explorer
2. Click Tools > Internet Options > Advanced tab
3. Uncheck "Reuse windows for launching shortcuts"
4. Close Internet Explorer

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:

a. Double-clicking an Internet shortcut (.url file) from within Windows
Explorer.
b. Opening a URL by clicking Start, and then clicking Run.
c. 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.
