My mom uses Internet Explorer and does not know how to open a new tab. She wants to be able to have several tabs open at a time so she can have her games, email, and who knows what else up. Anyone know how?

For extra points, do you know how to do it with a mouse AND with keyboard shortcut?

That works on my Google Chrome (CTRL T and hitting the + sign next to each tab)
But I'm powerless to help her on IE 9 since I have not used IE for many years!

He's right, it's ctrl T.

You should be able to depress your roller button over a link as well to open it in a new tab.

Well I used that fine graphic and looked on my mom's computer. The little check box was NOT applied to enable quick tabs. I selected that, restarted her computer and it WORKED! Thanks for all.....
