New windows open behind old windows

[Bobbi]

I have IE6 options set so that desktop shortcuts open in new windows (rather
than reusing a window that's already open), but they always open in back of
open windows. Is there a setting to make them open in front of all open
windows?

Hi,
See:
886217- New program window appears behind all other open windows on Windows
2000, Windows XP or Windows Server 2003
http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=886217

Note (in that article) that TweakUI can make the registry edit, if you don't
wish to do it manually.

The UNDO file at http://www.kellys-korner-xp.com/xp_tweaks.htm (line #66
right-side) makes the same registry edit.

Hope this helps,
Don
