| close window and lose internet Recently, whenever I get to a window that does not have a "back" button and I click on X to leave that particular window, I lose all previous windows and must sign on to the internet again. If there are "back" buttons, I can go back without any problem. Is this to do with my recently upgrade to XP and what can I do? -- Bill |

| Re: close window and lose internet Thanx, Darryl. That's a good suggestion. I would still like to know why it is happening, though. -- Bill "dperry" wrote: > On Feb 13, 11:02 am, glovepro <glove...@discussions.com> wrote: > > Recently, whenever I get to a window that does not have a "back" button and I > > click on X to leave that particular window, I lose all previous windows and > > must sign on to the internet again.

| Re: close window and lose internet More importantly, I often need to get back to the previous window. It might not be in my favorites nor would I know its url. Thanx for your suggestion. -- Bill "dperry" wrote: > On Feb 13, 11:02 am, glovepro <glove...@discussions.com> wrote: > > Recently, whenever I get to a window that does not have a "back" button and I > > click on X to leave that particular window, I lose all previous windows and > > must sign on to the internet again.

| Re: close window and lose internet Bill, You are in the wrong NG, if you have an issue with IE6 or IE7 send to the IE NG which relevant to your Q. You will not get the complete answer here it is General NG for XP, so try one of the IE NG according to the Version of your IE and post with more Info about the IE Version, do you have the back Button at all or is it happen with some websites. Here is the IE NG: http://www.microsoft.com/communities...&lang=en&cr=US HTH. nass "glovepro" wrote: > More importantly, I often need to get back to the previous window.

| Re: close window and lose internet Thanks so much, nass. Yes, it only happens on occassional windows. I can go back many times and suddenly I will come to a window where the "back" button is clouded and I have to X out. -- Bill "nass" wrote: > Bill, > You are in the wrong NG, if you have an issue with IE6 or IE7 send to the IE > NG which relevant to your Q. > You will not get the complete answer here it is General NG for XP, so try > one of the IE NG according to the Version of your IE and post with more Info > about the IE Version, do you have the back Button at all or is it happen with > some websites. > Here is the IE NG: > http://www.microsoft.com/communities...&lang=en&cr=US > HTH. > nass > > "glovepro" wrote: > > > More importantly, I often need to get back to the previous window.
