I'm beginning to get frustrated at all of you. I posted the answer to this
problem days ago.

Tools -- Internet Options -- Advanced tab
Check mark "Reuse windows on launching shortcuts"
(About 2/3 down under browsing)

Specifies that when you click a Web link in an Internet-aware program, such
as Outlook Express, and there is already an Internet Explorer window open,
the Web page appears in the open browser window instead of opening a new
window.

So make sure this box is unchecked to open multiple windows. I only like one
browser window open at a time so mine is check-marked.

And yes, I just verified this again in Windows 98 and XP...
You might also have to hold the shift key when you click on a link in XP.
