keeping web pages open when minimized

[Guest]

I used to be able to keep several webpages open at once when they were
minimized. Now if I open a web page, the one that I have minimized
disappears. I would bet that I somehow changed a setting LOL Can anyone help
me get it back the way it was? I look forward to your help and suggestions.

Go to Tools | Internet Options | Advanced.
Uncheck "Reuse windows for launching shortcuts".

Also, if you have 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 (especially uninstall Yahoo Companion).

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

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