command line

[Guest]

Hi

I'm often using the command line (start->run) to launch a web site

e.g.
start->run->type: www.microsoft.com

The problem I have is when the default browser is already open. The web
page I want to launch is open in an existing window. Is there a way to open
it in a new browser window?

Thanks

Mathieu

Goto Start -> Settings -> Control Panel -> Internet Options

Goto the Advanced Tab.

Scroll down and uncheck the item that says "Reuse windows for launching
shortcuts"

Then ask in a newsgroup for whatever browser it is.
