Hi,

for launching shortcuts."

241911- Description of the Reuse Windows for Launching Shortcuts Setting in
Internet Explorer 5.01
http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=241911

You won't get links on a webpage to always open in a new window. Learn to
use Shift+click (hold down the Shift key when you click on the link.)

And... if a second window opens but closes the first, you may have a toolbar
or program running which is blocking pop-up windows- something like Yahoo
toolbar, Google toolbar, MSN toolbar, etc.
The Yahoo toolbar is a very common cause. Uninstalling the Yahoo toolbar
should allow a second window to open.

Thank you Don... not sure unchecking "Reuse windows for launching shortcuts"
did anything, but holding down the shift key works. Didn't know that
"trick".
I was sure there was a setting to "Always open a new window" in IE, but
maybe I'm wrong.
I'll look into those other web sites you sent.

Thanks again,
TC
