Ok... it takes me a while. Still, I thought that I'd share with w[censored]ver is still in remedial computer science class with me. :oops:
I started adding shortcuts to internet sites on my desktop recently. e.g., the forum, forum chat, etc. Could be anything. Anyway, I noticed that every time I clicked on one of the desktop icons it would change whatever other internet site I was viewing at the time. I mean really, you have a bunch of sites open at once... right? Anyway, I went looking for the 'open in a new window' setting and came up blank. It just got to be an annoyance.
Today I found the answer. If you're using IE, then this is what you do: Open IE and click on TOOLS | INTERNET OPTIONS | ADVANCED and uncheck "Reuse windows for launching shortcuts".
Simple! :D

hey g.... if your desktop starts gittin crowded, you can use ms word to create a word docs that will open those same links.... it can look exactly like the very good job patrick did with the formulas.... a shortcut to it can be placed on your desktop also....
use the insert hyperlink function.... after the first time its a snap....
word will put this.....

I occasionally save links in Word, but I never thought of making a menu list of them. I think that's pretty neat. For sure, the IE Favorites feature needs some major work. Thanks h! :D
