I have the very same need. Users have the URL in an email. They want to
click on that URL in a new IE session. Currently, if the user has an IE
window open and they click on the URL, then the URL will display in the IE
window that is already open. I ned the URL to display in a new IE session
so
that users would have two IE windows open.

Did you find a solution? If so, please post! Thanks!

In our .NET 1.1 ASP.NET application, I'm noticing some behavior that I
would like to change. If I open a web browser and manually copy and
paste a URL, then I get a new session ID (I check it by entering
javascript:document.cookie in the URL field to get the cookies for the
page). However, if I instead click on the same URL in an email link,
the browser that is opened will reuse the session ID if another browser
is already open to the application. Instead, I would like the click on
the URL to allow any existing session to remain but force a new session
for the newly opened browser. Is there anything I can setup in my
application to force this? In stepping through the code, I've noticed
that the Session_start event of the Global.asax is not fired when
clicking the URL in the email - in the web.config we have setting of
cookieless as false, and it needs to stay that way (I think the
SessionID resulting from the email URL click is pulled from the
cookie).

If anyone has suggestions on how to force the email URL click to create
a new session without closing any existing session, I would really
appreciate it.

Thanks in advance.
