Although I don't use IE primarily and use Opera 95% of the time ( I
more enjoy the shell enhancements such as the quick launch bar and the
start menu enhancements) I decided to look at this problem. I was saying
that the browser and not TB! should offer the solution. Alex said that
there was a config file that could be edited (I didn't commit that one to
memory since I care nada for Netscape).
For Internet Explorer (I'm using version 5 here) go to the 'Internet
Options' applet and select the 'advanced' tab. In that list there is an
option which goes like this:
"Reuse windows for launching shortcuts"
If you uncheck the option, URL links from TB! and other apps will open in
separate windows each. :)))
