This has been a frustration for me for years. How do you
stop web links in emails from taking over open MS
Explorer windows in Outlook 2000. I always have several
windows open doing several things, (sometimes important)
I can't click on email links from Outlook because it
always takes over a open window rather than open a new
one. Is there a way to change the preference to open
links in a new window. My inbox fills up because I a
reluctant to check email link news letters because it
will take over a window I have open doing something else.
Somebody please help!!!!!!!!

Depending on your version of Windows/IE - Tools->Internet
Options->Advanced->Browse in New Window.
