Hi there,

How do I add a command to have a shortcut link to IE6 open up a new window
when going to a particular site?

Thanks,

Gordon
 
Hi,
You can modify each Internet Shortcut to open a new instance of IE.
Find "IExplore.exe" (probably in Program Files\Internet Explorer)
Right-click and drag IExplore.exe to the desktop and choose "Create
shortcut." Right-click that shortcut> Properties> Target, modify the Target
to include the URL.
Example:
"C:\Program Files\Internet Explorer\IEXPLORE.EXE"
becomes
"C:\Program Files\Internet Explorer\IEXPLORE.EXE" www.yahoo.com
Note a space between EXE" and ww
Rename the shortcut if desired.

Or, it should also work to start with a target of www.yahoo.com then add the
path to IEXPLORE.EXE

That should always open a new instance of IE for that shortcut.
