IE Wish

Now that MS is bringing back the IE Team, I've got a request. When a link is opened from a shortcut or an email, please let it open up a new window (or a new tab <grin>)

It always sucks when a link comes up in what was a popup window, or into the gmail window.

<update>Opps, seems it already does that. It's an advanced setting, but it's there. Cool. I still think it should be a default, but it might not be such a big deal as popups are defeated as an ad mechanism. </update>

Hold down your shift key while you click on the link.

Also, under Tools > Internet Options > Advanced, there's a checkbox called "Reuse windows for launching shortcuts".
