Right click a link closes primary browser window

[bobdylan]

Hi

Something strange has started happening in the last couple of days. I used to be able to right click on a link in IE6 and choose 'Open in New Window'. All was fine but now when I do this the secondary browser window will open OK but it automatically closes the primary one!!

Have checked to see if it's my popup blocked but doesn't appear to be...

Anyone heard of this and know the fix for it??

Thanks a lot...

Have you tried running any spyware detection tools?

I agree with billraypreachersson, kind of sounds like possible spyware. Give these a try.

Do a full system scan with each and let us know your results.
