Yeah, it is kind of weird since they have always opened in the same tab before and I made no changes to my settings to cause it. It has to be something in iGoogle that causes it since it occurs across all browser platforms and only in my iGoogle RSS reader gadgets. Maybe I will disconnect those gadgets and then resubscribe to them to see if it changes anything.
Thanks for your help.
