IE "Open New Window Problem"

T

TheSkeptic

When reading email in Outlook (or other mail app), links"
to a website automatically link to the "last used IE
window". This is a very annoying trait. Links should
ALWAYS open a new window. Many times I may have a window
open that I don't want to leave (at times leaving a site
can be very troublesome - i.e. when visiting banking
sites etc). I understand that IE will open a new window
shen holding down the CTRL key, but many times I forget
to use the CTRL key and I blow away a IE window (and
daughter windows - Java windows etc.) that I don't want
to have to restart/rebuild.

There should be a default setting in IE that causes IE to
ALWAYS OPEN A NEW WINDOW when linking from Email etc.

From IE> Tools> Internet Options> Advanced> Browsing> uncheck "Reuse windows
for launching shortcuts." Should work very reliably with links in a mail
message.
