That one is correct....

I've a feeling I've run into a similar problem in the past, but I didn't
have time to look into it properly. _blank wasn't opening a new window as it
should, but I assumed I had a typo somewhere and ignored it. Perhaps there
is a bug...

No, you have to call the browser to request new browser windows. You could
try:
gotoNetPage( "javascript:void( window.open('http://www.msn.com/') );")
However, this method is known to be unreliable. In fact, someone has
recently reported that it does not work correctly under Windows XP. That's
not to mention any browser that has Javascript disabled.
Another possibility is to generate a unique target name each time. If a
target is not found, the browser is supposed to open a new window and give
it that name. So, you might get better results doing this:
myWinName = "mypopup" & the milliseconds
gotonetpage( "http://www.msn.com";, myWinName )
