I am going mad with this problem and more madder and I know I have probably caused it!!!!
Okay, so now when I click on a link it doesn't open in a new window. It opens in the one already open and not only that but there is no option to go 'back' which means if I am wanting to get to view the original website then I have to start from scratch basically:mad:
And it never used to be like that so clearly something I have done....my bad
!!
It's Vista I have and any help would be most gratefully received:D

Hi,
are you using FF, if so go to Tools > Options > Tabs, I've got them all ticked except the bottom one, only because that seems to be the default setting.
Edit: afterthought, if you right click on link it gives you the option to open in new window or new tab.0 -
