Hi to all.

Ray, I have IE7 on the system I purchased a month ago, and I haven't had any problems.  The only thing I can think of that you might check that you didn't list is the folder settings on the Control Panel to see if the computer is set up to open new folders in the same or separate window.  To check this setting:

1. Go to the Start menu.
2. Go to the Settings menu.
3.  Go to the Control Panel menu.
4.  Press F and go to the Folders menu.
5.  Tab down three times and see if "Open New Folders in the Same Window" is checked.  If not, check it.
6.  Press OK and close the Control panel.

If that doesn't do it, I have no idea what is going on.
