Hey guys, I have a shortcut to Computing.Net in my quick launch taskbar, but when I open it, it invades the window I was already surfing in, rather than opening in a new window. Any ideas how I can instruct it to open in a new window?

But that would mean when I'm looking through my drives in explorer, each directory will open in a new window, I'd be swamped. Anyone else?

There are other ways, which would allow it to apply to certain windows rather than generally, by editing the registry for instance, though I cannot remember the edit................

If you're using Internet Explorer, go to Tools, Internet Options, Advanced tab.
Uncheck the box: Reuse windows for launching shortcuts.
That should do it!
