jmbreslin 0 Posted March 19, 2008 Share Posted March 19, 2008 This has nothing to do with poker but there seem to be some computer experts around here so I'm hoping someone can help me.All of a sudden a problem has developed with my IE that came with my new Dell laptop. Whenever I click on a link to open up a new window, the new window just opens blank. Anyone know how I can fix this?Thanks. Link to post Share on other sites
ktjb23 0 Posted March 19, 2008 Share Posted March 19, 2008 This may sound like a very unhelpful answer, but....Bin IE and download Firefox. Everything works much much better and faster. Link to post Share on other sites

yahaw 0 Posted March 19, 2008 Share Posted March 19, 2008 sounds like you might have you're internet options set to use blank, go to tools / internet options/ you will see home page there what's it set to? if it says blank there's ur issue you have to change it hope this helps.oops misread your post thought it was home page that was not working , srry carry on ,if you cant find problem you can always try to restore your laptop back a few days or a week to when it was working fine , you might have a virus or spyware.

Everything works much much better and faster.I was like, "right, I'll tell him to download Firefox if no one else has"First post...Still, QFT.Or get Flock. Same system as Firefox, and by Mozilla, but better for networking.That said, I have it and network a lot, but still prefer Firefox Beta 3.4 Link to post Share on other sites
