IE6 won't open links in new window

Hi,
This may or may not be the same problem.

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, MSN toolbar, a firewall,
Earthlink (or
another) pop-up blocker, etc.

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

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

If you're certain that another program is not causing this, these links
should help:
