hey i created a desktop internet shortcut to go to a specific website...
i was wondering how can i make that open a new internet explorer window
rather than using one thats already open.

i was in the middle of a rather large www.yousendit.com upload and i
went to open a shortcut to a certain website and it opened it in my
yousendit window and i had to restart the upload... im looking to make
this shortcut open in its own window

Uncheck:  Reuse windows for launching shortcuts |
Apply | OK
