How can I remedy this problem, this does not happen for every site but only for some, such as amazon.co.uk
It's annoying isn't it? Some sites seem to think they are clever by hijacking the sidebar window, Amazon, Lycos, those sort of places. I don't know of a way you can get back to your search results when this happens. Best I can suggest is after searching, right-click and "open in new window" ... :blink:

can u explain more about this?
Re: IE back button problems
Basically, it's very easy to open pages in the sidebar, or explorer bar, using javascript.

Unfortunately, sites that do this do not seem to pay any attention to what is already there!! :frusty:
Hence, the problem..

To permenently solve that problem use Netscape instead of Internet Explorer :D

or hold the shift key while clicking on the link. I use that shortcut often.
