IE6 Open links in the SAME window

Curley_Boy
Ok please don't laugh. . . . How do I force IE6 to open links in the same window as the one I clicked the link in? I've tried Tools>Internet Options>Advanced>'Re-use windows for launching shortcuts' but that didn't help.

"Download for Internet Explorer 5.5"

Another Phoenix Browser Topic

ViolentGreen
