Do you have any toolbars or helper objects installed? I don't see this
behaviour with my IE after the patch, also XP SP2 fully patched. However, I
don't run any third party toolbars (eg. Google). It's possible that
something has changed in the handling of add-ins in IE that causes one of
them to start opening new windows.
