From: Robert on 5 Dec 2009 00:45 I have a laptop computer with Windows XP Professional. Sometimes I have Ineternet Explorer open to several sights when I need to turn off the computer and take it with me. I have notices that if I just unplug the computer (and disconnect the battery) that when I turn it on again IE gives me the option of restoring my previous sessions. This is convenient. If I shut the computer down correctly before I go, IE does not offer this. Is there any way to get the computer to save the sessions in IE without pulling the plug out? I know I can just write down the website urls but it would be nice. I cannot afford another computer.

I don't know myself as I use Firefox which gives you the option to start the program with the tabs from the previous session. But perhaps you might have better luck in fionding the asnwer to your question in the Internet Explorer groups instead. You'll find people who are much more knowledgable about IE there. -- Roy Smith Windows XP Pro SP3
