After the release of the new securities update for Windows XP, I have been getting a tab popup on Explorer 7, called Windows Live, which is a search engine. It comes up automatically on the second tab at the top. Does anyone know if this is disabable?

Have you tried right-clicking? the same way you remove all tabs...

I do not see it listed in the manage add on area. I do not understand the "right-click" advice, unless I was not clear on what I wanted to happen. Of course, its easily closable once its there, but I just did not want it even popping up in the first place to need closing.
This is Larry, being picky.
Is nobody else using Explorer 7 getting this?

Check your home page settings to see if you have multiple start up pages.

You rock!

I had not noticed, but yes, the new browser allows for more than one home page to be opened. I just have to delete the one that I do not want opening and I get just one like I wanted it.

Thanks!
