Outlook 2003 hijacks my open webpage when clicking a link!

[Bo Berglund]

Whenever I click an internet link in a received email using OL 2003 as
viewer it launches the web browser. But if I already have the browser
open with an interesting page loaded, then OL hijacks that instance of
the browser and replaces the page I was keeping for later reading!

How can I configure OL 2003 to not do this? It should always open a
*new* IE6 window or a *new* FireFox tab even if these browsers are
currently started.

Not Outlook's fault. In Internet Explorer, Tools, Internet Options, Advanced
tab, uncheck Reuse Windows for shortcuts.

I think there is an extension for Firefox that does exactly that. Ask in
the Firefox forum http://forums.mozillazine.org/viewforum.php?f=38

I used the regular FireFox settings to get me a new tab on the most
recently used window. Works fine as far as I can see.
