    thanks so much, it was just getting irritating switching between windows or having to right-click every link and click open in new tab.
    thanks again.
    Problem solved
    :D:D

    Tools > Internet options > Tabs Settings and choose 'Always open pop-ups in a new tab'

    Thats should do it! Let us know!

    EDIT: Posted before I submitted! Glad to hear its fixed!

    Go to Tools up in right corner of the window, select Internet Options. In the bottom of the window that pops up, there is a Tabs section, and you can click on Settings. From there you can make the link open in a new tab when you click on a link.
    Hope that helps!
