On Vista, IE stops working when using multiple windows (opening popups) after a certain amount of time

I recently got a new computer with windows Vista. I don't think the
problem is with IE (i have the new version) because this didn't
happen on my old computer with XP. I sometimes open about 5 or 6
tabs.
Java is used a little bit as well.

After a while, I try to open certain windows that 'pop up' and won't
work. Either a white window will come
up, or nothing will happen at all. I believe that I can still search
other parts of the internet when this happens, I just can't open the
windows that 'pop up' when you open them. I assume this is a problem
with Vista unless someone knows differently.

Is there any way to fix it, or is there something I can do about it?
Right now, the only way
to fix it is by logging off and logging back in again, then re-
opening
all my windows. Then after a while the same thing will happen again.

If it can't be fixed, is there anything I can try so that I won't
have to close all my windows and log off? Any ideas? Thanks

Hi Bradley,
I have the same problem too, I can't find any solutions of it so I decide
to switch to Firefox eventually. Perhaps others can give you more hints on
that.
