Problem with multiple instances of IE6

[Guest]

Hello there,

I've been having problems running multiple instances of IE6. This is when i
need to have various ie windows, only one can run, by trying to open a
second one the first one is recicled/killed.

I've tried to repair IE following several methods I've found on the web, but
none of them had worked.

Please help, this is really annoying.

Of course this problem wasn't there before, I can't remember what I've
installed that could lead to IE to behave like this, nor I believe is a
virus, since I've an up2date antivirus, and anti spyware.

Thanks

Jose.

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.

Hope this helps,
