Opening in new window
« on: August 21, 2005, 10:06:10 AM »
Every time I try to "Open in new window" or the browser automatically opens a new page, the address bar is empty and the page won't load. If I click STOP and reload, it works fine. I run IE 6 SP1 on Win '98. I've tried resetting to default settings, and uninstalling/reinstalling the browser. Nothing fixes the problem. It all started when I tried Google Taskbar, and then uninstalled it. I've also tried re/un installing that. HELP!!!

Use Mozilla Firefox and forget about windowed browsing. Welcome to the future..

No offense, Raptor, but you say the same thing to everyone. I'm alright with IE, thanks.

I tried to do a windows update, but my computer locks up.

I'll check on the virus thing.

Thanks for the help!
