This is weird.  I've never actually tried this shift/click link thing so
I really don't know how it's supposed to work in older OSs ...but I just
followed Clint's instructions below....clicked his first link and up
came my browser, then I shift/clicked his second link and I got a browse
dialog box that said "Locate Link Browser" (kinda like shift/right
clicking to get the "open with" dialog box)....I'm using Windows XP Pro
and Outlook 2002

So, since I use multiple browsers on my machine (just to check my site
in different ones....my browser of choice is Opera), I just learned a
new trick to be able to choose the browser I want....thanks LOL

And to answer Clint's questions about Windows Me problems....I really
don't have the time to research that one right now, to show you all the
different problems people have had with it....I can only tell you I
tried Me on one of my machines and it lasted 4 days cuz I really did not
like it....a total resource hog and more blue screens than I ever saw
with 98 or 95.....and I know I've read articles where even Microsoft
admits Me was a big mistake.....and now, with XP as an alternative, I
can't imagine why anyone would choose Me....you're better off with
98...but, like I said before, this is JUST my opinion

All I was saying is it seems strange to me that someone would choose
their operating system, based on how well their email program/browser
performs on it.....I would think you would choose your email/browser,
based on how well it performs on the operating system of your choice

But was CNN opened FROM WITHIN Outlook Express?  You must try
to open MORE than ONE link from WITHIN OE.  When you see this
post, click my URL, then while holding the shift key down,
click the other URL below it and then see if you get TWO
SEPARATE browser windows.  :)
Thanks,
