internet explorer links open blank window on first click
I am using Internet Explorer 6. If I click on any link without having a browser window already open it will automatically launch IE but only a blank window will come up. If a browser window is already open the links will work fine. Is there anyway to fix this?

Or check "My Computer" > Tools > Folders Options > File Types & scroll to URL , click Advanced , select Open , Edit & check "Use DDE" is ticked.

Thanks for the advice. Between your post and the previous post regarding file tyes it made me think. There was a file type listed with no extension that said URL: HyperText Transfer Protocol. When I went into that one it had -nohome after the iexplore.exe file. When I took the -nohome out it works fine now. Thanks to both of you for your help!

I tried the Doug Knox file and that didn't work, and the Use DDE was already checked. Thanks for your help though!
