Internet browsers

[Guest]

My pc closes the internet browser that is open whenever I try to open another
one.
Any help would be most welcome

Hi,
If I understand... you can only have one Internet Explorer window open at a
time?

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

And... you may have a toolbar or program running which is blocking
pop-up windows- something like Yahoo toolbar, Google toolbar, MSN toolbar,
etc.
The Yahoo toolbar is a very common cause. Uninstalling the Yahoo toolbar
should allow a second window to open.

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

This happens to me too, please let me know if you get an answer

Make sure it opens a new instance of the browser and not a shortcut. Opening
a shortcut to a website will cause an already open browser to be redirected.

Reading this thread it looks like Yahoo Toolbar could be a culprit:

I also know there's a registry tweak to let you open more IE windows, I just
don't remeber what it is.. (used it once at a friend, who couldn't open more
than two instances of IE)
