If removing that file doesnt work. Delete all contents of the temp folder in the local settings folder of the user having the problem.

Thanks a lot Toolboy for giving a reply,but i have solved the problem long ago.The main problem is with the installation of the speech engines in the MS word.So those who have the same problem of "cant open more than one IE window".Try and uninstall the speech engines from the MS word and the problem will be solved

had a problem like this and none of the solutions above solved it, but I was able to resolve the problem.
tools>internet options>programs>manage add-ons
now I found out what was causing my problem was Yahoo companion BHO and disabled it, anyone of the addons can cause the proble so you would have to do an elimination method on it.

If i were you i would get rid of internet explorer... its had its day.. your better off using mozilla firefox! this way u will be less liable to stupid pop ups and browser hijackings, and you will be able to open more than one window! infact better still you can use tab browsing and have multiple pages open on different tabs in the same window so u wont even need to open more than one window!

I had the same problem -no error message - but unable to open more than 1 window. I tried many, many things to no avaail and do not have yahoo companion, but I did have yahoo toolbar until another post told me to uninstall it which I did. EURAKA !!! My problem instantly disappeared. I have have yahoo toolbar for a long time so there must have been a change to something somewhere but removing it definitely did the job.

I just encountered the same problem a couple days ago after installing Yahoo Messenger.
I have since then uninstalled it, but am having a little trouble knowing which step to follow in the previous replies to fix my problem.
Could someone give me a clear solution to fix the problem of the previous window closing when opening a new one? Thanks.

By the way- while using internet explorer, I already went to "tools> internet options> programs tab"... but did not find anything that says "manage add-ons"??
