IE will not open in new window

[brian]

I am having a terrible time. I just reimaged my PC and
everything works except for IE. When I open IE and then
try to open another instance of IE it always opens in the
same original window. I have unchecked the "reuse
windows" option in the advanced tab. Even if I right
click a hyper link and click on "open in new window" it
always reuses the window. Someone please help, this is
drving me nuts. THANKS!

Brian,
Are you running any programs to block ads? The google toolbar? That type of
program could be limiting you to one window.

I uninstalled the google toolbar thinking that was causing
it, but it still happens. I also had ad aware installed
and removed that. It is very weird, never seent his
happen before. Any other ideas? Thanks much.

Apparently, 'open in new window' is dependent on the following files,. Run
the following commands from start/run. Run each line individually. After
each run, you should see a short message stating the command was successful.

regsvr32 Shdocvw.dll

regsvr32 Shell32.dll (only applicable to Windows ME, Windows 2000 and XP -
if using an earlier operating system, run regsvr32 shdoc401.dll)

regsvr32 Oleaut32.dll
regsvr32 Actxprxy.dll
regsvr32 Mshtml.dll
regsvr32 Urlmon.dll

If that doesn't fix it, then try replacing OLEAUT32.dll by using Fix1 or
Fix2 below:
