Unable to open multiple browser windows in IE

[Guest]

Since installing SP@, I have not been able to open multiple windows. I have
tried the following which were suggested here without success:
1.Tools/options/advanced/ unchecked 'reuse windows for launching shortcuts'
2.Tools/options/programs/ reset web settings & Tools/options/advanced/ reset
defaults

When I press ctl-N or file/new/window I just get the current page refreshed,
not a new window.

I am running Mcaffee security suite and have privavy service and block
pop-ups disabled?

Any other suggestions? Thanks in advance

Hi Richard

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.

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.

Thanks for the quick response. I have tried all these, which I found in a
previous post. There was only one registry.dll which was not found....but
since that was from a post referring to IE 4.01, I disregarded it.

Anything else that might work?

Thanks in advance
