I'm visiting my father and fixing the cumulative problems since my last visit.
He's running Windows XP Home SP2 and I installed Internet Explorer 7 last night.
This is ****ed peculiar:

We have two users on this machine; him and me. If I log in, I see the "normal"
IE7 just as it exists on my home machine, which runs XP Pro SP2... I have three
tabs to my home page and all operates as I think it should.

If my father logs in, as you look across from top left to right, you see
"Favorites Center", then "Add To Faqvorites", then "Home". There are no tabs;
there is no way I can see to open a new tab. Now, there is a downward pointing
arrow just to the immediate right of the "home" button. Clicking on it shows
the three selections my father wanted to be tabs for his home page. If you
click on any one of them there is no delay in opening... so it's as if it were
functionally opening a previously loaded tab rather than opening a new window.
Visually, it's as if you opened another window.

We share the same firewall (ZoneAlarm Pro), the same anti-virus (Norton's
Systemworks 2003), the same anti-spy (Windows Defender). For the life of me, I
don't see why it works properly for one user but not another. Ideas?

Does that user have Enable Tabbed Browsing checked?
(Options, Advanced tab, Tabbed Browsing section)

If not, perhaps that is how multiple home pages are handled then?

You may have a horked (dirty; bad; flawed) install of IE7. I suggest that
you..,

1. Uninstall IE7 (which automatically returns you to IE6) per
http://www.ie-vista.com/kbase2.html

2. Uninstall all toolbars and third-party Windows Themes (including Window
Blinds).

3. Reinstall IE7 per http://www.ie-vista.com/known_issues.html#pre-install,
and using http://www.microsoft.com/windows/downloads/default.mspx as the
installation source, not Automatic/Windows Update.

Enable Tabbed Browsing IS checked for both users.

When I downloaded and installed IE7 last night, I set up my father's screen
before I did my own. His never showed any tabs. Then I logged in under my name
and tabs were created as I would expect them considering my previous experience
with my home machine.

The most likely cause is interference from other programs.
Have you tried No Add-ons mode? (Etc.)

Have you tried toggling it? E.g. on your account so you can test
if it is the same symptom? Then toggle it twice on your father's account.
Do it using inetcpl.cpl with iexplore.exe not active.

It may help if you listed whatever else you are both using as add-ons
and accessories. This symptom sounds slightly familiar but I can't
remember any details. One thing I know though is that there are programs
which interfere in various ways which can not be controlled by No Add-ons
mode. One of the accessories from Google is an example.
So you might have to resort to some clean-boot troubleshooting techniques
to find a culprit.

Another alternative would be running ProcMon in both accounts
and comparing the differences in the traces. E.g. the Process event
trace might even be enough to show you differences as modules are
loaded, stacks built up, etc.


Good luck

Man, that was a lot of work. I did what you said, uninstalled IE7, uninstalled
the Google toolbar, turned off auto update, rebooted twice, then downloaded and
saved the IE7 file from the download site (rather than Windows Update). I then
installed the software and rebooted twice again, reactivated auto update, then
installed the updates Windows found. I rebooted again, then tried IE7.

When I logged in as my father, it was as if I had stepped out for a beer instead
of spending all this time reloading the software. Nothing was fixed. Then
again, nothing was worse. When I logged on as myself, everything worked as it
should. In other words, everything now is exactly as it was before I did
anything.

Bummer.

One down, two to go:

1. Does this behavior persist if you start IE7 in No Add-ons mode? To start
IE7 in No Add-ons mode:

=> Right-click on the blue IE desktop icon and select Start without Add-ons;
or

=> Start > (All) Programs > Accessories > System Tools > Internet Explorer
(No add-ons).

More:

Troubleshooting and Internet Explorer’s (No Add-ons) Mode:
http://blogs.msdn.com/ie/archive/2006/07/25/678113.aspx

2. Does the problem persist if you Reset IE7 Settings (RIES)?
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/923737 <= Read before using!

What anti-virus and/or security suite and/or anti-spyware application(s) are
installed? Running a third-party firewall (e.g., ZA Free; Comodo)?

Hi,
Check...
Display Properties> Appearance> Windows and buttons. If using Windows
Classic, switch to XP Style. Restart. If the tab band appears, you can
probably switch back to Windows Classic.

Hope this helps,

Here's how this one finally played out. I decided, just for G&S, to create
a totally new username. What do ya know? The new username showed the tabs
just as they should have from the start! Not only that, the old username
had an issue where it wouldn't apply the same settings to all files no
matter what I did... including some registry work where I changed a value to
a much higher number of pages. But I digress.

Obviously the original username had some issues. All subsequent usernames
didn't. So I copied, imported, etc. everything I could think of to the new
username, I've still got to port over the old message rules but I think
I've got most of it done now. I'm going to make the old username invisible
for now so I can still get to it if I forgot something.

Anyway, that's my story and I'm sticking to it. Thanks for everybody's
help.
