IE 6 problem

fjon · 2004-01-19 11:57:36

This is probably very easy to solve, but it is driving me mad! When I receive an email with a URL in it and click on it, the web page doesn't open in a new window but in an IE window that's already open. Is there any settings I can select which will allow this to open in a new window?

Yeah, on the menu go to Tools -> Internet Options -> Advanced -> Browsing and then uncheck the option that says "Reuse windows for launching shortcuts".

Worked for me anyway.
