At work, I will have an Explorer session open and running. Though I may be
in another application for the moment I want to keep this session running and
at it's current site.

Many times I need to reference or cut and paste from another site as many of
our business partners are web based.

My problem is, when I select the Explorer icon, in the quick launch Task
Bar, it uses the current, open Explorer session and takes it to the different
site.

I know I can navigate back to the previous site but it's terribly inefficient.

I need a new Explorer, 6.0.2900.2180.xpsp_sp2_gdr.050301-1519, window
everytime I select the icon.

Is there a setting that I need to address?
 
Go to Tools | Internet Options | Advanced.
Uncheck "Reuse windows for launching shortcuts".

Also, if you have Yahoo Companion, Google toolbar, MSN toolbar, a firewall,
Earthlink (or another pop-up blocker) My IE2 (a shell for IE) etc.
Yahoo Companion is a very common cause.

You'll have to turn off the feature that's blocking new windows or, perhaps,
uninstall the program (especially uninstall Yahoo Companion).

With some programs of this type, using Ctrl+click or Shift+click will allow
a new window.

If you're *sure* that another program isn't causing this, these links may
help.
