dvtrv Posted June 18, 2011 Posted June 18, 2011 I have gone to tools, internet options then how web pages are displayed in tabs then open home page blah blah. But this does not seem to work. Please can you help? Quote
Plastic Nev Posted June 18, 2011 Posted June 18, 2011 Hi, for a start off, if your operating system is correctly stated as Windows 7 Home Premium, you should now be running Internet explorer 9 not 7. That is way out of date and now not very secure. I recommend you go to the Microsoft home page and download and install IE9. If problems, we can take it from there. http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/internet-explorer/downloads/ie On the other hand if you have just got the numbers wrong and you do indeed have IE9 you should have this at the top of the page as per this screen shot. http://i28.servimg.com/u/f28/14/68/69/96/ie_tab10.jpg If you click the small box as per the green arrow, that will open a new tab. Then type or copy and paste the URL you need into the address bar, as per the red arrow. Quote Need help with your computer problems? Then why not join Free PC Help. Register here.

dvtrv Posted June 18, 2011 Author Posted June 18, 2011 Oh my sincere apologies. I ment to post it to a vista home premium page. Can you help me for that please? Quote
Plastic Nev Posted June 19, 2011 Posted June 19, 2011 Internet explorer should still be exactly the same as above when run in Vista. Do check which version you have as ideally it should be IE9 now. Internet Explorer for XP is still only at IE8 by the way, they haven't as yet got IE9 ready to work with XP. Nev. Quote Need help with your computer problems? Then why not join Free PC Help.

Plastic Nev Posted June 19, 2011 Posted June 19, 2011 Hum, open Internet explorer, click on the tools button, and then the "About Internet Explorer" let us know what it says as to the version that IE is at Please. Does it look like this? If not, go to that link I gave in my first post, and update it please. http://i68.servimg.com/u/f68/14/68/69/96/intern10.jpg Quote Need help with your computer problems?

dvtrv Posted June 20, 2011 Author Posted June 20, 2011 What I did was to get annoyed by the people who clearly do not listen or just make outstanding assumptions without reading peoples requests and decided to just leave it. Quote
Starbuck Posted June 20, 2011 Posted June 20, 2011 And i get annoyed when members ask for help and then throw it back in the faces of other members trying to help them. You are the one with the system..... members helping you can't see what you see, so they rely on accurate descriptions and information. If you don't give this information, the member helping you can only sit and wonder. But anyway, members helping you don't deserve to be ridiculed. I'm sure you'll find another site to be annoying at .... because you won't be posting here again. Quote Member of:UNITE
Plastic Nev Posted June 21, 2011 Posted June 21, 2011 What is more, I did ask you to upgrade to windows Internet Explorer 9 so further help could be given. If you can't accept or understand instructions, it ain't my fault. Quote Need help with your computer problems? Then why not join Free PC Help. Register here.

NaRu Posted June 27, 2011 Posted June 27, 2011 Sorry to revive this thread, but you could also just press ctrl + T which, as far as I know, opens a new tab in every browser. Quote
