| Re: Windows Vista Home and Internet Explorer opening multiple wind Thanks for the suggestions. I have to admit, I actually found a fix for my issue, and it was much simplier than I had thought. In the Internet Options window, in the advanced tab is a reset internet explorer button that will remove all plugins that have been added. It resets IE back to its default setting. You need to read the warning though, because it does set the entire browser back to its original state, including resetting the default home page. This did fix the issue. I'm not sure what caused this, it started after updating one of the windows recommended updates, and restoring back from my earlier restore point didn't even fix this. Lesson learned after days of not being able to use IE! Thans again!
