When opening desktop links

When I click on links I have on my desktop, it takes over an already open webpage. Is there any way to force this to open in a new window automatically?

I'm using IE7 and whenever I click on a new link, it opens up a new tab. If you haven't already done so, it might be worth downloading it. :)

P.S. Having said that, I just realised it only applies to Internet Explorer links. When I open different applications, mine does open in different windows. Hope I didn't confuse things!

Unfortunately my company (an extremly large one well known company) wont allow Explorer 7 just yet... they run everything through a massive, long security check. Thank you for replying though.

Any suggestions for IE6?

They probably wouldn't allow my other suggestion either. However, when I was on IE6 I used the MSN tabbed download. I'm sure that is likely to come under 'not allowed'. Still, there are lots of others in this Forum who are infinately more knowledgable than I am. Give it a little time for someone else's comments and advice. I'm sure it will come. :)

Here's another one to try!!

In Internet Options under the Advanced Tab, settings, there is a check box for 'Reuse windows for launching shortcuts when tabbed browsing is off'. This is in IE7, but you could try the IE6 Tools, Options and see if there is a similar checkbox under Advanced.

Good Luck! ;)
