Problems with "Open in New Window"

W

William Low

I'm having problems with "Open in New Window," the right-click menu command
in IE 6. Occasionally when I utilize it, the window it opens is all white
except for the Title bar: no menu, no buttons, nothing.

Somehow some of the other browser windows I have open begin to respond the
same way (but not always all of them). Closing one of these windows brings
up the "End Task" dialog box. End-tasking it closes all of the windows that
had begun to respond this way.

Any help on this?

Thanks.

Update/reinstall your scripting engines from here:

If no joy, go to File Types (My Computer...Tools...Folder Options...File
Types tab)
Scroll down to the URL: Hypertext Transfer Protocol file type, click to
highlight, click Edit, click Open, click Edit (slightly different with Me -
click to highlight, click Advanced, click Open, click Edit).

Application used: "C:\PROGRA~1\INTERN~1\iexplore.exe" -nohome
Use DDE box should be checked
DDE Message: "%1",,-1,0,,,,
Application: IExplore
DDE...not running: <blank>
Topic: WWW_OpenURL
