opening home folder


I have been using Ubuntu for a few years now and am now trying out Lenny.
The only reason I have tried Lenny, is because it now has a GUI..wonderful!
In Lenny when I open "Home" and then other folders within Home, I get a separate window for each one
Is there a way to enable Lenny to just open the Home folder and the folders within without opening separate windows? In other words, using the click back action.

Kind Regards, kiwidipstick.:scratch

opening folder windows

Thanks glore2002 for your advice. Your link did appear to solve my problem, but I have got the answer through another forum.
Raidens link is very good though for other assistance.
Cheers.

Sorry glore2002
I meant to say that your link did not solve my problem.
Please excuse the typo error.

if you`re using nautilus, check if changing this helps:
edit>preferences>behaviour> 'allways open in browser window'
