:cheesy: okay, i might be slow to this, but I had the same problem for about 2 weeks. I UNINSTALLED yahoo tool bar, that didnt fix it. I am not an IT expert, so I dont know what registry setting mean. Here is what I did. I went to C:/Program files and then looked in the YAHOO folder. there were several other folders in there. When I CNTRL+Selected multiple folder to delete, I kept on getting an error message; r2bin.dill cant be deleted, it may be in use. I locaed that file in one of the folders and individually deleted it. It worked.
Now I am able to open multiple windows in IE 6.5. I am using Windows XP home edition.:p

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"??

thats right, no mamage add on in the IE menu. read my post below, you ahve to find the annoying *.dll file and delete that. even un-installing yahoo messenger didnt work for me, but seem to ahve worked for others
