    Unhappy IE problem, help!!

    This is the problem: If I have two or more instances of IE open, and web pages loading on each of them, then each instances AUTOMATICALLY brings focus upon themselves whenever bits and pieces of their page loads. It is extremely irritating, and it started just out of the blue last night.

    Please help!!

    I've just recently started getting that as well, damn annoying. I couldn't find anything in the advanced internet options screen, but i did found an interesting option. 'Reuse windows for launching shortcuts'. So now, when i click a shortcut to a webpage, it doesn't replace one i already have open - which is nice.

    Also, don't install crap peer-to-peer software that screws up your IE.

    Is "tweakUI" the name of the program? Where can I find it?

    Yes. It's a microsoft proggy I think. not supported. If you can't find it let me know and I'll e-mail it to you. Tweak UI is really cool and very small. Nice all the way around.
