I tried the Yahoo! Toolbar. It allows tab browsing with Internet Explorer 5.5 and 6.0. The tab feature is a nice idea but the tab is very restrictive. “The new tab navigates to Yahoo! Search; from there you can navigate using your IE Favorites/bookmarks.” The tab can only open in Yahoo! Search.

I uninstalled the Yahoo! Toolbar.
