How can you get IE6 shortcut link windows, sent to the desktop as a shortcut, to open in a new window? I have several saved links on my desktop since theyre easier to get to than scrolling through my rather large favorites list. When I open one of the links from the desktop, the link opens in an existing window which is what I do not want or need.

Thanks.
