while browsing, if I open a new tab to search for something and then I click on what I have found, my Back button does not work, not is it highlighted. IE, I highlight a word and right click on it to do a google search, it will open a new tab. When I click on something to view, my back button does not work and I have to start all over again by closing that window and redoing my search.

OK friends. I was tired of running Norton antivirus and it slowing up my PC, so I installed McAfee and....guess what? Problem solved!! No more problems with the back button on new tabs. I'm glad it's fixed, but have no idea why and what the problem was other than something in Norton. Instant fix.
