Re: IE8 - want NO tabbed browsing
Sorry for the missing info:
OS = Win 7 Pro
IE = 8.0.7600...
I don't want tabbed browsing to be my default -- I want the old-style, one
window per page possibility to be my default. There was, formerly, a setting
to "open in a new window" or somesuch, automatically.
Turning OFF tabbed browsing, in IE8, under TOOLS > OPTIONS did NOT do this,
at first, but it seems to have "kicked in" since. So no longer a problem.
Thank you.
