Recently IE6 stopped creating a new window when I right
click "open link in new window". When I click that,
Nothing happens. I can do ctrl N and get a dupilcated
window but I can't get a "new window with this link". Any
ideas?

You do not mention important information such as the version of Windows you
are using, thus, I will try to provide some general information: Try the
following and see if it helps.

Try re-registering the Actxprxy.dll

Open Multiple Windows In IE

To keep more than one browser window open at a time, click File in the main
menu, select New, then Window. To close a browser window, click the X in the
top right-hand corner or select Close from the File menu. You can also open
a new browser window with Ctrl+N.

Courtesy of Don Varnau:

From IE> Tools> Internet Options> Advanced> Browsing> uncheck "Reuse windows
for launching shortcuts."

And... you have a program running which is blocking pop-up windows-
something like Yahoo Companion, Google toolbar, a firewall, Earthlink (or
another) pop-up blocker, etc.

You'll have to uninstall the program or turn off the feature that's blocking
new windows.

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