Hi Sandy & Vincent
Here's a simpler means to achieving the same result.
With your cursor on the link in question press the Applications key (3rd key
to the right of the spacebar on a normal keyboard); press down arrow until
you hear Open in new window; press ENTER and a new browser window will open.
Regards,
Michael

Good morning Vincent,
At last I see a post for which I think I have an answer! This started to
happen to me a while back and I discovered that these links are generally
going to open a new window and the only way I can get them to open is to
press both control plus enter. However, I often have to do this several
times, it seems that the press shouldn't be exactly simultaneous, not sure
though, generally speaking, I get success if I press the enter just
fractionally before the control key, but still end up by holding both down
together. Sorry my explanation is so hand fisted, but give it a try and keep
pressing the two, repeatedly, until you hear "new browser window" I think
that is what you will hear anyway.
All the best,
Sandy.
