I use to be able to open as many internet explorer windows as I want, now after downloading Norton Security 2007 something has happened and I can only open 1 internet window. If I try to minimize the internet page I am on so it goes to the bottom of the task bar and then go to my desktop and open up a new internet explorer, it picks up the window I already had minimized, thus I loose thepage I was on and cannot even select the back arrow. I have since deleted Norton thinking this was the cause, I did a full system restore and I still have the problem. Norton techs cannot figure this out. I need to be able to access more than 1 window at a time, please help!

I have IE6 and I have never had this problem before. I do not want IE7 I know that this will not fix the problem. I am thinking there is a setting in my computer I am not aware of....

You should either download Firefox, or if you have XP Service Pack 2, upgrade to IE7. IE7 and Firefox both have tab capabilities, and you can open multiple tabs in the same window by controlling them through a bar at the top of the screen. I have found this feature very useful. Hope this helps!

Depends on the version of IE that you are using. You can click on page on IE6 and then click new window. You may also have picked up some adware or spyware that prevents you from doing what you want to do. If this is the case you could try this: http://ssandbs06.stopperx.hop.clickbank.net/

maybe you should install Firefox (for instance). It is free and many people recommend it. I use it also and I am very happy to have it. Here you can open as many windows as you want.
hopeful it helps

hmm..that is a bit strange. But maybe you could download the new internet explorer (7.0); it allows your to open up more than one tab on the same screen.
