Opening Additional Windows in ie6

When I click on "e" for internet explorer, a new window appears and I
can have multiple ie windows open at the same time. When my assistant
does the same thing it closes the ie window she is in. Where can I set
her ie6 to do the same as mine.

Hi,
Different user accounts?

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.

Thanks very much. What we found was that she was trying to open
another window from a "google window" instead of launching another
internet explorer window.

I appreciate the help.
