Only opens one window, why?

[Guest]

On this stupid program it will only let me open one window in internet
explorer at a time. Normally i could open loads, now i cannot. If i have one
window open and then try to open another one, the new one appears at the
expense of losing the previous window. Very annoying and don't know why

Hi,
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. Disabling the pop-up blocker may
allow a second window to open. Or you may have to uninstall the toolbar.

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

Hi, I removed the Yahoo Toolbar fom Windows and that fixed the problem.
What's interesting is this problem only occurred when I upgraded my OS from
XP-Home to Xp Pro. Not sure how that change affected the Yahoo toolbar but
watch out. There's obviously more going on than we realise.
