Not opening a new window

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.

  • Hi,

    don't know about AB, try the right click and see what options you get, did a wee search and got these, might help.
