I can't open two browsers at one time. Please Help

[Griffin]

Whenever I have a Windows Explorer open and I open
another one to browse something else the first window
closes. Another example is when I click on a link that
opens in another window the original window closes. I am
only to have one window open at once and I do not know
how to fix this problem. Please help.

Thanks

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

And... you have a program running which is blocking pop-up windows-
something like Yahoo Companion, Google toolbar, MSN toolbar, a firewall,
Earthlink (or another pop-up blocker) My IE2 (a shell for IE) etc.
Yahoo Companion is a very common cause.

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

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