    Not sure what's causing this, but when I try to open a second IE6 window, the first closes and then the new window opens, this is very annoying as I can't browse more than one window a a time.

    So if you sitting there reading this message and you click on your IE icon, the first IE with the message closes?

    To try the easiest thing first, in Internet Explorer, go to Tools>Internet Options>Advanced tab. Find and uncheck "Reuse window for launching shortcuts," click OK.

    Seems to me there used to be an issue like this for some that use the Yahoo toolbar. Do you have it installed?

    Thanks for the suggestions, I will try them later.....

    but the new inormation doesn't load over the existing, rather the existing window closes and then a new one opens.
