This article was previously published under Q156518



SYMPTOMS
With Internet Explorer 3.0, if you load an HTML page that contains frames and then click a hyperlink to a Microsoft Word Document and the file loads inside one of the frames, if you then minimize IE to the Taskbar and try to click it to bring it back to a windowed view it will remain on the Taskbar.



RESOLUTION
When the item is on the Taskbar, right-click the item and select either Restore or Maximize. Internet Explorer will expand to a window view. You can also use Alt+Tab to bring Internet Explorer to the foreground.



STATUS
Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in Internet Explorer version 3.0. We are researching this problem and will post new information here in the Microsoft Knowledge Base as it becomes available.



MORE INFORMATION
This problem does not occur with Internet Explorer 3.0 running on Windows95. This occurs only if frames are used on the HTML page.
