Controlling opening of windows

[Bobbi]

Windows XP, IE6:

If I have an IE window open on my desktop and then click on a desktop
shortcut to another website, the new website will replace the contents of
the window that's currently open. If there are several IE windows already
open, I can't tell which window the new website will replace.

Is there a setting in IE somewhere to control this, say, to force a shortcut
to open in a new window? I should be able to preserve the contents of a
window while opening another website.
