| Save Time, Open Search Results in a New Window SUMMARY: Stop jumping back and forth between the Yahoo! Search results page and matching websites; open links in new windows.
When you perform a search with Yahoo! Search, your time may be spent doing the following:
1. You perform a search.
2. The results page appears. You try one link to a website that looks good.
3. Once you are done visiting the link, you either use the Back button or re-access Yahoo! Search and re-perform the search.
4. You look at a second result.
5. Once you are done visiting the website, you either use the Back button or re-access Yahoo! Search and re-perform the search.
6. Repeat.
Instead of doing this, there is a way you can keep the Yahoo! Search results on the screen while using a different browser window to view resulting web pages.

3. Check "Open search results in a new window when I click on them".
4. Click the "Save Preferences" button when you are satisfied with your changes.
