If you are willing to restrict yourself to IE6 running on WinXP SP2,
handle NewWindow3 event. It comes with the URL and everything else
necessary to cancel the "new window" operation and simply call
IWebBrowser2::Navigate.

If you need to handle other browser and OS versions, this is what you
need to do. Create a temporary, invisible window hosting a WebBrowser
control, sink events from it, return this WebBrowser via ppDisp
parameter from NewWindow2. Eventually, this temporary browser will be
navigated and will fire BeforeNavigate2. At this point you have enough
information to cancel the navigation, destroy the temporary window and
call Navigate on the original browser.

It's a pain, but I don't know of any other way.
