Hi,

Wanted to make sure IE7 was upto-date so did an install.
Now find I can't get rid of the You have opened a new tab message when I click a new tab, even by clicking the "don't show this again" box.

Found this on Google, but there must be a simpler way, shirley?

Waiting hopefully,

Bin

Disable the annoying "You've opened a new tab" screen from appearing in Internet Explorer 7.

1. Click Start, type REGEDIT and press ENTER

2. Click the plus sign next to HKEY_CURRENT_USER
then Software
then Microsoft
then Internet Explorer
then TabbedBrowsing

3. Right-click on TabbedBrowsing and select New-->DWORD Value and name it ShowTabsWelcome

4. Double-click ShowTabsWelcome, and set its value data to 0

5. Restart Windows
