Actually, nothing has gone wrong in IE7 from IE6... this is a security feature 
(you can't make this stuff up).

IE7 has been set such that any time a link it executed for a domain other than 
the one that the browser is currently located at, this will open in a new 
window. This is to prevent many phishing attempts by preventing a third party 
from creating what looks like a login portal to your page which then redirects 
to the true page... It's annoying, but you shouldn't count on it going away.

One thing that you can try is setting the homepage of your browser to a URL at 
the same domain as the tests site that will be utilized. 

Option #2 would be to use a system call to fire IE, and pass a URL as a command 
line param. This gets tricky with cross browser code, though, so again is not 
ideal.
