If you have 
and have issues with opening new tab in Internet Explorer 8, you may need a fix for the same. MS has identified the issue and released a fix. You can find the fix and the other steps that need to be followed in the below MSKB article:

If the update listed in the website is already installed in your PC, download and run the HangResistance registry fix. This fix will add the keys mentioned in the MS KB article. However, I’ve created the same for those who are not good at modifying the registry.
