When I go to Bing image search, a single click of the back button does not take me back from whence I came. However, after many double clicks of the back button does mostly return back but never on a single click or one double click. Any ideas?

Some extensions may cause extra entries to appear in the drop-down list. You can hold down the left mouse button on the Back or Forward toolbar button to open the Tab history list and possibly skip to an entry further up in the list.

I get around this by; When I find a link I want to check out, I open it in a new tab/window. Then when I am done, I close it and am back where I started.
