Can't open more than 1 IE window

Lately when I try to open more than one IE6 window, the first one closes.
This has never happened before. Does anyone have a fix?

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. Disabling the pop-up blocker may
allow a second window to open. Or you may have to uninstall the toolbar.

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