In this screenshot we’ve got an active download started through Internet Explorer but no open Internet Explorer Window, that’s been closed, we’ll say accidentally.
What happens when we click the Internet Explorer icon to open another window? Nothing! At the very best all you’ll succeed in doing is minimising and restoring the download window. You won’t be able to open another Internet Explorer window until closing this download box.
Now we all know that you open the IE jumplist and select “Internet Explorer” to open a new instance of the program, but what about a novice user? The average person sitting at home or in an office will be completely confused by this as, while the jumplists are a good idea, there’s still a learning curve associated with them and, as we all discovered when businesses took a look at Vista, people don’t like learning curves.
