Contrary to what people keep saying, I did have tabbed browsing on IE6...until a week ago. Then I wasn't paying attention and went to close things when a pop up asked if I wanted to turn off tabbed browsing. Without thinking, I said "yes". Now I can't figure out how to turn it back on. I've gone through all sorts of things and I can find is that it may be an add-on that HP put on my laptop or it might be part of Yahoo toolbar. But even finding those bits of info isn't telling me where to go to turn it back on. I even tried a system restore to a point before the change was made. No help. Any suggestions?

There is no place in the Tools>Internet Options section that even mentions tabs. I'm also not running MS toolbar...just Yahoo toolbar. Can't for the life of me figure out where the option is to turn it back on...

I have IE6. I had tabbed browsing via the Yahoo!Toolbar. If this is the same case as yours, you need to go to the little pencil button. In the menu there's toolbar options ---> enable tabbed browsing.
Good luck!

Did a little research and you are using MS Toolbar to add tabs to IE6 Correct? If so here's the site with all the info you need on how to use this...

If you have IE7 go to tools, Internet options, Tabs setting, enable tab browsing.
If you don't have IE 7 get it! It's safer to use that IE6 with better security...

If IE6 works the same way as IE7, then you can go to tools - internet options - general - and reset your tab browsing options. If not, then you can always look for the tab browsing options somewhere in your internet option.
Good Luck

Here are the instructions on how to turn it OFF.
I figure you can turn it on the same way.
1. Open Internet Explorer by clicking the Start button , and then clicking Internet Explorer.
2. Click the Tools button, and then click Internet Options.
3. Click the General tab, and then, in the Tabs section, click Settings.
4. Clear the Enable Tabbed Browsing check box.
5. Click OK twice.
6. Close Internet Explorer and then open it again.

no longer plausible. With basically one tab open you won't be able to close IT. besides.... procedures > information superhighway thoughts > Tabs > Settings > examine enable Tabbed surfing (you should restart IE) There you bypass.
