Hello BooyaNY,
Just how your browser behaves is a function of the way you set it up. I do not know which browser you are using, but try something like 'Tools' - 'Options' and see if you can locate your browser controls.

Try Tool-Internet Options-Advanced, then check or uncheck the box for "Reuse windows for launching shortcuts."

The only downside to this solution is that clicking on any link in any web page in the future will open a new window.

Imagine you at a page that has text '...the answer can be found by clicking here...' If you click on thet link, a new page would open (because you have set this as your prefernce). In most instances, this would be seen by many as an annoyance.

My recomendation would be to leave things the way they were in your IE preferences, so that by default a ew window is not opened. Then if as in the case you have described, you wish the link to open a new window, you should...

Right Click on the link
Select Open in New Window

If the recomendation you have been given is good enough for you, then of course use it, but using my recomendation, you will not fill your screen with new windows, but still be able to open a new one whenever you want.
