    Whenever I open IE9 4 tabs open up automatically with Google home page

    I am not sure when this started, but now every time I open up IE9, it automatically opens 4 tabs: the 1st one is my home page whihc is the sign-in page for my gmail account.

    The other 3 are all the same: Google's search page.

    How do I get this to stop? It's more annoying than anything but I can't find any info on IE9 help (surprise! surprise!)

    Also -- it used to be that when I hit Control-N on a web page a new window would open up that was identical to the one I hit Control-N on. That doesn't seem to be working any more either.

    TIA :)
