For some reason I am unable to run more than one instance of Internet
Explorer. If I click to have a 2nd browser window running then it closes the
first and continues opening the 2nd. If I click on a link within my first
browser page it'll open the 2nd browswer page for the link I clicked on, but
it will close my first browser page.

Please Help!

Thanks

Hi mmof3bys :)

You don't tell us the version of Windows you are using, but, try the
following and see if it helps:

From IE> Tools> Internet Options> Advanced> Browsing> Uncheck "Reuse windows
for launching shortcuts."

Hope this helps.

Hi mmof3bys :)
I am using Windows XP Home & Internet Explorer 6.0

The suggestion I posted should still work in that version. :-0

Hope this helps.

Hi Kelly :)

Ok...then try the following information:

This is often caused by third-party browser add-ons or program running which
are blocking pop-up windows, such as Yahoo Companion (should be
uninstalled), Yahoo toolbar, Google toolbar, MSN toolbar, a firewall, or an
IE shell program.

Yahoo installations have been known to cause this problem. See here:
http://www.mvps.org/inetexplorer/answers.htm#new_window

If still no joy....try these steps:

Open IE,>Tools>Internet Options.
Select Advanced tab and click the [restore defaults] button.
Later, select the Programs and click the [reset web settings] button.
Click OK.

Thanks so much for your help, I checked and we had Yahoo & Google toolbars
installed, I uninstalled both of them and everything is back to "normal"!

Thank You!
