I guess the OP has left the building.
Let me give this a shot......Open Internet Explorer to any website. At the top you will see a tab that has the name of the website you are on, see it? To the right of that is a second tab, click on it and a new IE window will open so you can go to a different website. This should solve your problem.
Internet Explorer 6 did not have tabs. Then you would have multiple icons on your Taskbar. As far as I know, IE 8 was the first to have tabs and allowed you to have only one instance of it open at a time. If you only need one instance of it open, it saves memory and makes your PC faster.
