HELP: IE merges files on taskbar bar.

The annoying problem I'm hoping to correct with your very appreciated assist: When 3 or 4 websites are running on the taskbar, IE decides to merge them, so I must open their file to see what is there. How can I prevent IE taking over and merging what I do not want merged? I want each running website with its own place on the taskbar, just like I put them. Please tell me this can be done. I hope I hope...

Thanking you in advance, Alice

yes you can, just right click on taskbar
select Properties
and uncheck (click on the checked box) "group similar taskbar buttons"
then click Apply , Ok

there you go...no more grouped tasks!
