Mulitple Browser Windows

G

Guest

Can someone tell me how to open up multiple IE Windows? While working in one
window, a pop up may come up and run in that window. It is very frustrating.
I have used popup blockers but it still happens.

This is probably a setting I am missing.

Thanks for your help

Hi mike :)

Try the following and see if it helps:

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.

If these steps do not resolve your problem, please post back to this thread
with the details and any error messages.

Hope this helps
