Do you have Reuse windows for launching shortcuts enabled in IE6 or IE7 Options? If not, follow the procedure below.

You can also CTRL+N to force open a new IE6 or IE7 window. The new window will display the same page you created it from.

Sweet Image, Try registering the referenced .dll files as shown under the Resolution section at the link below.

You cannot open a new Internet Explorer window or nothing occurs after you click a link.
