Hey everyone,

I've been having this problem for a while and I'm not quite sure what it is. Sometimes when I'm using IE and I'm on a website, if I click anywhere on the website (not links, just say I'm clicking to highlight text or something, or scroll) a smaller IE window will pop up that just stays blank. I thought they were pop-ups at first but they stay blank and the Address bar stays empty or has the URL of a site I've recently been on. This only happens on some websites, and happens when I click the page of the website I'm on..

Does anyone know what this is/how to fix it? It's a bit annoying =[

Kelly, I'm just guessing but when you go to Tools>Internet Options>Tab Settings>When A Pop-up Is Encountered, is 'always open pop-ups in a new window' ticked? If so, try changing that to 'always open in tabs'.
