I can't think of a reason to turn off Tabbed Browsing.
If you want a new instance of IE instead of a tab in the current instance,
then simply start the new instance by clicking on the icon. Opening a tab is
far easier, and faster, and switching between them is also quicker.
In a DoD environment, your life may be far different than everybody else's
though. Having said that, if you can navigate away from whatever they use
for the Home Page, then you can open a tab or a new instance, and navigate
to the same places.
