IE10 "Open in new tab" gives blank page
I have been using IE10 for about 6 months.
A few days ago, immediately after the regular monthly windows update from Microsoft, one IE10 feature has been consistently misbehaving.
Regardless of the method I use, when I try to open a link in a new tab, the tab is created with a completely blank page. The tab itself is also blank. The URL displayed in the address field is that of the calling page.
I raised this issue here in Microsoft Answers and have had assistance from ThrashZone. ThrashZone suggested I post the results of an AdwCleaner scan for feedback from this forum, hinting that the computer may have a virus. I use up-to-date Kaspersky IS 2012 AV which appears to be 'on the ball' and both my wife and I have pretty tame browsing habits, so I do not suspect a virus at this point. However, I'll keep an open mind.
Any analysis or thoughts from forum members?
