Internet Explorer question.

[Tony Vella]

Whenever I do a search (google, altavista, yahoo, no matter) every link I
hit gives me a new Internet Explorer, to a point that after a while there
are 6 or 8 of them to shut down. With my old XP each link would replace the
previous link on the same IE. Any help appreciated.

Tony - Right click on toolbar and turn off "Cascade Windows" if it's on. Look
into the other settings - "Show Windows Side by Side" and "Show Windows
Stacked".
I had your prob and one of these was to blame, but not sure which. Wayne

You can sort out how you want new windows to open in IE7 there.

Thanks Mick - Your suggestion is better than mine for usefulness. I've been
looking for that tip. Must have been what fixed my problem, but I forgot.

No worries. Vista is hiding all the goodies.

Unlike in XP where everything was in the open.
You need a miner's licence to work in Vista it is buried so deeply!
