I'm running Windows 7 and Internet Explorer.
When I click the "X" on a given tab to close a page, it also closes another tab to the left of it (which is usually my GMail page) and on occasions, that completely closes IE as well.
However, I can also use CTRL + W to close the immediate tab and that doesn't close IE. There is a little problem that my screen goes dark for a fraction of a second during the transition. I guess the dark screen is because the display driver momentarily stops working.
My question is why does clicking the "X" on one tab also close multiple tabs and why does my screen go dark when I close using CTRL+ W?
