problems after installing broadband - internet explorer - open in new tab

Hello,

I have just installed broadband (orange) after many years on dial up. I
suddenly seem to be unable to open new web pages in a new tab in explorer -
the page opens in a new window instead. I have had no problems until now. I
normally right-click & select 'open in new tab'. I've checked Tools/Internet
options/general/tabs/settings and 'enable tabbed browsing' is checked ok.

Anybody know what might have happened ?

Thanks

KK

Some crappy companies' installation programs play with your IE settings. Did IE
get 'branded' as orange too ?

Hello,

Yes, IE now has an orange logo in the corner
