View Full Version : Minimised screens

Whenever I open more than 5 screens (in IE, using XP), instead of minimising them seperately at the bottom, it 'clumps' them all into one minimised icon, which I have to click to find the pages that I want. Is there any way that it will allow more than 5 minimised pages appear at the bottom of the screen?

Thanks.

You could try the MSN Search Toolbar which apparently allows tabbed browsing - you can download it here http://toolbar.msn.com/
I've never used it myself, so can't vouch for it though.

Or you could use Firefox instead of IE - my daughter uses it on the main PC and always has loads of sites minimised !

Just right-click anywhere on the taskbar (the blue area at the bottom of the screen) and select properties. Then make sure that the option Group similar taskbar buttons is unselected. Click OK.

That option has always been a waste of code to me. I believe IE7 uses tabs.

Avant is an IE-based tabbed browser and it rocks!
