Faves for this Web page

  • mike - May 23 2008 | ie, microsoft, bugs, crash, hang

    On a brand new machine, running IE 7.0.6000.16643, when I open a new tab, I get the "You've opened a new tab" page - but it HANGS/CRASHES IE (that page is non-responsive for about a minute!). I can't navigate to another page, or click the close button, or the close box, or anything.

    Here's a trick to nuke this stupid page and just get a blank page when you open a new tab:

    Run: regedit
    Navigate to:
    HKEY_CURRENT_USER \ Software \ Microsoft \ Internet Explorer \ TabbedBrowsing
    New DWORD: ShowTabsWelcome = 0

    Resart IE, and this annoying (and buggy) page is gone.
