    Right clicking on link for a new tab or page doesn’t work. Page won’t even show up and a tab will show with a IE logo and word connecting, but nothing happens. I have disabled all add-ons several times and restarted IE and it didn’t help. Anyone have any ideas. Does windows history have any thing to do with it?

    IE7 Tabs and Pages

    Tried the Reset and it didn't work. Thought I'd do a system restore and it won't work eather. Looks like I've got problems.

    If you Middle click on a link does it open in a new tab?

    Which OS are you running - XP or Vista?

    Thanks Pet C for helping me get OS going again. IE7 has gotten worse. It just flashes and when I put in a url it open another window and just flashes. I have XP Home sp2.

    IE7 New Tabs

    Pet C
    Thanks again. I finallydecided to uninstall IE7 starting with the last update. After uninstalling the last one, I tried IE and it seems to be working fine. I may be able to keep using it. Sure could have save me and other a lot of time If I'd just tried that first.
