I have a form that has a link label that holds a website address. When the linklabel is clicked, I want to pop open a new browser window with the website. The code below causes the latest browser window (ex. hotmail) to browse to the website.

I want a new browser window to be opened.

private void llWebsite_LinkClicked(object sender, System.Windows.Forms.LinkLabelLinkClickedEventArgs e)
{
   string sLink = e.Link.LinkData.ToString();
   if(sLink != null && sLink!=String.Empty) 
      {
         sLink = sLink.ToLower().Trim();
         System.Diagnostics.Process.Start(sLink);
      }
}

I have also tried the following:

System.Diagnostics.ProcessStartInfo x = new System.Diagnostics.ProcessStartInfo(sLink);
x.CreateNoWindow=true; // tried both true and false
x.UseShellExecute=true; // tried both true and false
System.Diagnostics.Process.Start(x);

Any ideas here?

Thanks

I think that the "open in new window" is driven by user preferences, not software.

In firefox, I know, there is an option for "Reuse open windows for new links", which I always deselect.
