Hi Jaymx
Please provide more detailed information such as, the version of Windows you
are using, and version of IE (i.e., IE6 SP1, SP2), exact information
regarding the problem, exact wording of any error messages, what other
troubleshooting or corrective action, if any, you have done thus far.
Additionally, not knowing your OS, try the following as it may apply to your
OS and see if it helps:
Try deleting the History and Temporary Internet Files *folders*
for the user account having the problem. See:

You might want to refresh your scripting engine:

Go to Tools | Internet Options | Advanced.
Uncheck "Reuse windows for launching shortcuts".
Also, if you have Yahoo Companion, Google toolbar, MSN toolbar, a firewall,
Earthlink (or another pop-up blocker) My IE2 (a shell for IE) etc.
Yahoo Companion is a very common cause.
You'll have to turn off the feature that's blocking new windows or, perhaps,
uninstall the program (especially uninstall Yahoo Companion).
With some programs of this type, using Ctrl+click or Shift+click will allow
a new window.
If you're *sure* that another program isn't causing this, these links may
help.
