While I am at work I can open many "tabs" being on-line - different sites, etc. While at home -- a for instance, I can be looking at myspace layouts - click one to "preview" it. At certain areas you can't arrow back to the previous page so I will try to "x" out of it. On this computer it will say "you will be closing all tabs if you exit." Then I have to re-open everything again. Why does this happen and what can I do to make it stop? Please be specific with any instructions if you know. Thanks for your help.

If you just want to close one tab for your Browser then try pressing the "Ctrl" and "w" keys at the same time. This will close the current tab that you are using.
P.S. This works for Internet Explorer and Mozilla Firefox

Sounds like the X you are clicking on in the upper right is for the entire browser.
To close a particular TAB right click on the TAB and select Close from the popup menu. You can also select Close Other Tabs which will close all of the other tabs except the one you clicked on

Not quite clear on what exactly it is you want to stop? Are you saying instead of closing out all tabs, you want to close one particular tab only? If that's the case, don't 'x' out the full browser window. Instead right click on the specific tab and click on "close tab".

You can close individual tabs by clicking the X on each tab (or by selecting the tab and then pressing the scroll wheel on the mouse).
Also, try updating your browser (click help, check for updates)
