When pointing to http://www.foto.ru and browsing with several windows opened you
try to close one window and get all the windows closed. At this time default
debugger (vs6) is not launched by windows, so i think you track low-level
exceptions in code. I think that option "open windows in separate process" can
be usefull in this situation. By the way MS have invented it a long ago, and
it's still very-very actual for their browser=). Also i have a request: to have
an ability to totally disable "tabbed browsing". I usually click a link "open in
a new window" via right mouse button, not via control-click. Sometimes i go
angry when i missclick on a "open in a new tab", this options are very close.
PS: I have englich w2k server with sp4 and IE 6.01.
Thanks alot ppl!

Please list clear steps to reproduce the bug, including _exactly_ how you open
windows.  That section of the reporting form isn't there just for amusement
value, you know...

1) I launch th first window via a shortcut on windows desktop.
2) Then i type www.foto.ru in url bar and strike enter.
3) When page load complete, i right-click any internal link on it and 
choose "Open in a new Window" in a popup menu.
4) Second window is open and page loaded.
5) I click on an "X" button in second window's system menu
6) The second window closes along with the first.
