Default Problem with Explorer

I have a little bug with IE 5.5 ... since yesterday, it doesn't open the links that usually opens in new windows.. you know, like every link you find in a forum, from vids to simple url... it just begin to open the window and then stops and can't complete the task.. so I have to open it manually (ctrl+n) and copy&paste the url... annoying... does somebody know why my PC is so mean? :p

I've never encountered that problem but you should check out
Tools -> Internet Options -> Advanced
There you'll get a lot of options and it will probably be one of these you have to switch on/out. Maybe the : "Reuse window for opening shortcuts" option. Haven't tried it out.

By the way, nice car in your sig TT.

You said you had made a list of your car vid's. Could you perhaps mail them or send them to me via msn. Just want to check if I got everything from turbo.fr. The menu is a bit annoying and I haven't downloaded anything from it the last couple of weeks.

The options are all ok... as for the list: I did it and posted it in the TG thread at RF time ago.. didn't saved it though... and didn't update neither...
