    Hi all,
    I have a miner problem.
    It used to be that when I clicked on a link, it would open the page in a new window. After my restore (Ghost) it will no longer do that. I know there is a setting somewhere, but I can not find it.
    Any one know how to set that?

    Thanks
    Sven

    I'm not aware of any setting as such in IE, except right click on a link > Open in new window.

    If the link is in a web aware program, say Outlook Express, then there is a setting (in IE) under Tools > Internet Options > Advanced - uncheck 'Reuse windows for launching shortcuts'.

    Hi Pete,
    I am in the office now and when I click on your "quicklinks ", it opens in a new window. When I am at home, it will replace the window that I am in with the new window. I hade both computer the same, but now it will not do it the same way. Strange.
    Thanks anyway.
    Sven

    If you go to Tools > Internet Options > Advanced, and scroll down just a little bit, there is a checkbox labeled "Reuse window for internet shortcuts ". Uncheck this box, and it should fix your problem.

    Thanks,
